Note di degustazione
The 2010 Camarcanda is a blockbuster blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc. It offers sensational notes of blackcurrants, candle wax, dried flowers, and graphite. Ripe, full-bodied and incredibly sexy on the palate, this beauty has terrific depth of fruit, sweet tannin, and a big finish. It’s certainly drinking beautifully today, yet is going to cruise in the cellar for another decade.

The 2010 Bolgheri Camarcanda is an exceptional wine with a level of aromatic intensity and integrity that is impossible to exaggerate. The blend is Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, in that order of importance. The bouquet is impeccable and refined, with deep layers of Morello cherry, cassis, dried blackberry and spice that peel back in quick succession. The oak component is beautifully integrated, imparting notes of chocolate and tobacco that complete this beautiful portrait of Tuscan winemaking. Hold this bottle for a few more years.
The 2010 Camarcanda shows good freshness and energy, the hallmarks of the vintage. Dark red cherries, smoke, spices and tobacco are some of the notes that open up with air. At this stage, the oak is a bit overpowering and appears to be drying out the fruit. I expect the 2010 to offer its best drinking earlier rather than later.
The 2010 Ca'Marcanda is one of the more structured wines I have tasted from Angelo Gaja's winery in Maremma. Tobacco, sweet herbs, mint and leather all add complexity as the wine opens up in the glass. The aromas are nicely layered in this expressive, nuanced wine. The 2010 can be be enjoyed now and over the next decade. Camarcanda is 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc.
