Coastal elegance in a glass 🌊🍋 

From one of Italy’s most legendary producers, Gaja, comes a white wine that’s anything but ordinary. Ca’Marcanda Vistamare blends vermentino, viognier, and fiano, capturing the freshness of Tuscany’s coastal vineyards in every sip. 

So why is this classified as IGP (Indicazione Geografica Protetta)essentially table wine—rather than the prestigious DOC or DOCG? Simple: it breaks the rules by blending non-traditional varieties. And that means exceptional quality at a better price. Thank you, Italian wine law. 

Expect bright foral, citrus,and a touch of saline minerality—a perfect match for seafood, warm evenings, and anyone who loves a fresh yet complex white.

Critic reviews

What the experts say about this wine 👇

Tasted as a barrel sample, the 2023 Vistamare is lifted and packed with aromas of citrus zest along with a floral bouquet of concentrated key lime, starfruit, sea spray, and loads of floral citrus blossom. Medium to full-bodied, with a bit of white pepper spice, it has a fresher, more linear drive at this stage that should round and flesh out over time.
