This wine from Cantina Ca' Marcanda is the result of a combination of grape varieties that recall the French tradition and the historical incursions suffered by the territory of the upper Maremma. The use of vines that for 55% are of Merlot, for 35% of Syrah, and for 10% of Sangiovese. The different vineyards, both in Bolgheri and in the surrounding area of Bibbona, planted mainly on brown lands rich in silt and clay. The vinification provides that the grapes according to the variety carry out fermentation and maceration separately for about 15 days. After 12 months of aging in wood, the wine is blended and a few months in bottle before being marketed, after which it ages for 18 months in barrique and is characterized by an easy drink, which is combined with a magnificent aromatic complexity, to create a label that travels on unthinkable levels to reach the most.
Features of Toscana "Promis"
The appearance that is evident from the organoleptic examination is intense and deep ruby red. The nose is concentrated on hints of ripe fruit with dark pulp, followed by elegant tertiary tar, espresso, cloves, tobacco, licorice and dark chocolate. The taste is full to the taste, juicy but balanced and with a beautiful tannic texture. Long persistence.
