Product Notes

Gaja Ca'marcanda Vistamare is an exquisite white wine blend from the renown Italian winemaker, Gaja. Possessing a beautiful straw yellow hue, this fine wine captures an aromatic bouquet of citrus fruits, floral undertones, and a touch of minerality. On the palate, Vistamare unveils a perfect balance of acidity and an impressive lingering finish. It's a harmonious amalgamation of Vermentino and Viogner that mirror the maritime charm of Tuscany's coast. Ideally paired with seafood, this magnificent wine brings a dash of coastal freshness that enhances the dining experience, truly embodying the spirit of the Italian 'vista mare' or 'sea view.'

Tasting Notes

This wine opens with intense floral notes of acacia and linden flowers. On the palate, it is fresh and compact with notes of bergamot, pear, nectarine and white currant before moving towards a more mineral and spicy character, with notes of flint, rosemary and saffron. The wine gets riper in the finish with hints of mango, along with a slight hint of olives

About the Winery

Gaja

Nestled in the verdant hills of Barbaresco, Italy, you'll discover the esteemed Gaja Winery. Founded in 1859, it is a testament to the enduring passion the Gaja family holds for the art of viticulture, and their commitment to producing some of the finest wines in the world.

The Gaja Winery is known for pioneering techniques that have fundamentally transformed the face of Italian winemaking. Angelo Gaja, the brilliant mind behind many of these innovations, has been instrumental in putting Italian wines on the international stage. Not only did he introduce the use of new French oak barrels in fermentation, but he was also one of the key advocates of reducing vineyard yields in order to drastically enhance the quality of grapes.

The winery's profile boasts a stunning array of white and red wines. However, it was the single-vineyard Barbaresco wines that propelled the Gaja estate onto the international stage. With a multitude of global awards, their wines are a testament to both tradition and innovation.

Additionally, much of the winery's success can be attributed to the rigorous approach to vineyard management. The terroir, enriched by the unique soil and microclimate of the region, confers exceptional complexity and flavour to the grapes. Hand-harvesting ensures that only the finest are selected and processed immediately to preserve their quality.

Yet, Gaja is more than just about quality wines; it’s about the experience. The estate itself is beautiful featuring a rustic, but elegant charm that reflects the Gaja family’s respect for nature and tradition. As you explore its historic cellars, lush vineyards and taste their exceptional wines, you'll experience the heart and soul of Italian winemaking.

From humble beginnings, to being named among Italy's most renowned wineries, Gaja Winery rightfully deserves it's place in the annals of viniculture history. It remains a beacon of quality, innovation, and a hoe: a living testament to the power of family tradition and an enduring love for the land.
