It’s fresh, spicy, and floral on the nose, with balanced pure cherry fruit, spicy cedar, toasted incense, and fresh rosemary. It displays a medium-framed profile, but it doesn’t lack focus in its silky texture, fine tannins, and refreshing though seamless acidity. This vintage offers a lot of freshness and elegance. It’s lovely out of the gate but should have an even and long window for drinking over the coming 15 or so years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Wine Advocate · 94 Points:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Ca’ Marcanda 2023 Bolgheri Rosso Magari, a blend of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, shows appealing richness and a soft, generous side with plump berry fruit, baked blackberry pie and sweet spice.

Deep and plummy, it has a chocolatey nose with balsamic herb notes. The broad palate shows plummy black and red fruits, lifted and with floral top notes. Poised and very fresh, that balsamic and menthol character runs through the core with a streak of chocolate. Balanced structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWine Spectator  · 90 Points:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black currant, blackberry, bell pepper, iron and tobacco flavors gather in this sleek red.

Notes of black tea, and hints of aromatic herbs commonly found in the Mediterranean like rosemary and thyme, lead to a structured mouthfeel with tannins that are denser and more elegant reflecting the style of the vintage all culminating with a salinity representative of a classic Bolgheri style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFood Pairings \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuggested pairings include grilled steak, rosemary-roasted lamb, braised beef or roasted portobello mushrooms.
