The Gaja Winery was founded by Giovanni Gaja in 1859 and has been owned and operated by five generations of the Gaja family. In 1996 Gaja acquired a second property in Tuscany, Ca’Marcanda, located in Bolgheri. This Ca’Marcanda 2020 "Super Tuscan" blend of Merlot, Syrah, and Sangiovese is a testament to the winemaking skills of the Gaja family. It is exquisite and complex with bright acidity and supple tannins, allowing the wine to float across the palate with seductive notes of ripe Rainier cherries, plums, blueberries, and violets, with hints of fresh herbs, leather, earth, and spices.
