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. (AF)

The only white wine from the estate, Vistamare is an elegant blend of Vermentino, Viognier, and Fiano, three varieties that thrive in Bolgheri’s Mediterranean climate. The name, meaning “sea view,” evokes the breezy freshness and floral aromatics that define this wine, balancing ripe stone fruit, citrus, and saline minerality with a textured, layered mouthfeel.

Notes

The "Vistamare" from Gaja's Ca'Marcanda estate in Bolgheri, Tuscany, is a stunning white blend that reflects the coastal elegance of the region. This wine is a blend of Vermentino, Viognier, and a small portion of Fiano, offering a rich yet fresh expression of the Tuscan coastline. "Vistamare" translates to "sea view," a fitting name for a wine that carries the essence of the Mediterranean with its vibrant aromatics, freshness, and refined complexity. On the nose, the "Vistamare" reveals an enticing bouquet of citrus blossom, ripe peach, apricot, and tropical fruit, alongside delicate notes of white flowers and honey. Subtle hints of herbs and almond add depth to the aromatic profile. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with bright acidity, offering flavors of lemon zest, pear, and melon, balanced by a creamy texture and a hint of mineral salinity that reflects its proximity to the sea. The finish is long and clean, with lingering notes of citrus and a touch of vanilla.
