Camarcanda Bolgheri DOC - Ca'Marcanda

The Camarcanda Bolgheri from the wine-growing region of Tuscany is a dense purple red in the glass. If you give it a little air by swirling, this red wine reveals a high viscosity, which can be seen in strong stained glass windows at the edge of the glass. On the nose, this Ca'Marcanda red wine reveals all kinds of plums, mulberries, blueberries, black cherries and blackcurrants. As if that wasn't already impressive, oriental spices, cinnamon and cocoa beans are added to the mix.

The Camarcanda Bolgheri from Ca'Marcanda is just right for all wine connoisseurs who like it dry. However, it is never austere or brittle, but round and smooth. On the palate, this powerful red wine is characterized by an incredibly dense texture. The finish of this mature red wine from the wine-growing region of Tuscany, more precisely from Bolgheri DOC, is impressive with a remarkable aftertaste. The finish is also accompanied by mineral facets from the clay-dominated soils.
