Ca'Marcanda Promis
Bursting with succulent red and blue fruit, cigar wrapper, crushed flowers and herbs, and a touch of sun-warmed earth, the ’12 Promise is a sheer delight. The child of a warm, low-yield vintage, the ’12 Promis is exceptionally dense, approachable and delicious--it’s everything you could hope from a Super Tuscan made by Angelo Gaja! Promis, a blend of 55% Merlot, 35% Syrah and the remainder Sangiovese, offers the suppleness of the first two international grapes complemented by the acidity and structure of Tuscany’s emblematic grape. Sunny, juicy red and black fruit mingle with oregano and mint in this balanced, fresh, and charming wine, created by Gaja to express “commitment, expectation, fulfillment, and hope.”
