Ca’Marcanda, GAJA’s estate in Bolgheri, was born in 1996 propelled by Angelo Gaja’s ambition to challenge himself with Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot on Italian soils. A delightful wine which combines the elegance and suppleness of Merlot and Syrah with the austerity of Sangiovese.

A refined Brunello with chalky, polished tannins and a spike of acid. The palate is a mix of savory and sweet, with a whisper of earth and sage underneath a blanket of crushed red cherry and baked plum; the finish, starring tart cranberry and dusty mineral notes, is a wonderful grande finale.

The name "Love You Bunches" is a cute and nerdy nod to the process of Carbonic Fermentation (in which whole, uncrushed bunches of grapes are left to ferment inside a sealed tank), used here by the winemakers to manipulate an uncommonly bright, fresh, and light profile for Sangiovese.
This is a fun and happy wine; drink it cold under a hot sun.
