The 2021 Gaja, Magari Ca' Marcanda, Tuscany was a Merchant's Pick
One Shot, Once A Year • Gaja's Super Tuscan
November 07, 2023
Gaja may be most famous for producing world-class Barolo and Barbaresco. But, Gaja's Ca'Marcanda estate in Bolgheri is turning heads in the Super Tuscan landscape.
If you like Tignanello, Guado al Tasso, Sassicaia, and Ornellaia, you must try the 2021 Gaja Ca'Marcanda Magari.
Paying homage to international Bordeaux varietals, the 2021 Gaja Magari is a wonderfully balanced Bordeaux blend and classic Super Tuscan.
"The 2021 Magari is the most elegant Magari I can remember tasting. Vibrant, nuanced and medium in body, the 2021 possesses notable energy from start to finish. All the elements are so nicely balanced. Dark cherry, mocha, dried herbs, licorice and menthol are finely sculpted in this super-expressive Bolgheri red. Terrific." Antonio Galloni, Vinous
What We Love About This Gaja's Magari
A gorgeous Super Tuscan, the loamy, clay-rich soils of the property give this wine its signature texture and minerality.
How should you enjoy this Bordeaux doppelganger?
With grilled or roasted tenderloin. Season as desired with thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Magari possesses striking notes of mocha, tar, herbs, smoke, earth, and sweet French oak, which come alive with grilled and roasted meat.
Whether you are familiar with Gaja's Magari or not, make sure you get to enjoy this exceptional Super Tuscan.
Enjoy!
