A true jewel of Tuscany, the Rosso Toscana IGT "Promis" produced by Ca' Marcanda, Angelo Gaja's estate in Maremma, is a wine that encapsulates the elegance and character of this extraordinary terroir. Created in the Bolgheri area, renowned for its superior quality red wines, "Promis" emerges as a symphony of aromas and flavors.

This wine is a fascinating blend of three grape varieties: Merlot, Syrah, and Sangiovese, which harmoniously combine to create a rich and complex organoleptic profile. The Merlot contributes soft and velvety notes; the Syrah, characterized by strong aromatic intensity, adds spices and scents of ripe red fruits; the Sangiovese, the pulsating heart of Tuscan wine tradition, provides structure and liveliness with its characteristic balance between acidity and tannins.

"Promis" presents with an intense ruby red color and aromas ranging from ripe plum to hints of vanilla and chocolate, the result of careful aging in barriques. On the palate, it is rich and enveloping, with an elegantly interwoven tannic texture and a long, persistent finish that leaves traces of dried fruit and sweet spices.

Ideal to accompany dishes of grilled red meat, game, and aged cheeses, the Rosso Toscana IGT "Promis" is also an excellent companion for evening conversations, capable of evolving and revealing itself in the glass over time. Even the most demanding palates will be fascinated by its structure and complexity. A wine that promises not only quality but also an exciting sensory discovery.
