✨ Technical Specifications
Gaja's Dagromis is a masterful expression of Barolo, paying homage to the Gromis family who originally farmed the historic vineyard in La Morra before Angelo Gaja acquired the estate in 1995. Crafted from 100% Nebbiolo, this wine represents a harmonious blend of two distinct terroirs: the soft, calcareous clay soils of La Morra, which bestow exquisite floral aromatics and silkiness, and the limestone-rich soils of Serralunga d'Alba, which inject structural power, deep tannins, and longevity. Following traditional yet precise vinification, the wine undergoes 12 months of aging in barriques followed by an additional 12 months in traditional large oak casks. The result is a classic Barolo that balances Gaja's signature modern precision with the deep, historic soul of the Langhe hills.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1859 by Giovanni Gaja in Barbaresco, Gaja is among the most influential dynasties in modern Italian viticulture. The estate's global stature was fundamentally transformed by fourth-generation icon Angelo Gaja, who introduced temperature-controlled fermentation, French barrique aging, green harvesting, and single-vineyard bottlings to Piedmont. Viticulture across the Langhe's classic calcareous marls focuses on biodiversity, soil vitality, and organic tenets tailored to climate adaptation, eschewing rigid certification schemes. Gaja is celebrated worldwide for its benchmark Nebbiolos—notably the flagship Barbaresco DOCG alongside historic single-vineyard crus Sorì San Lorenzo, Sorì Tildìn, and Costa Russi—and its Barolo cru Sperss. In addition to peerless expressions of Nebbiolo, the family revolutionized Piedmontese whites and Bordeaux blends through benchmark bottlings like Gaia & Rey Chardonnay, Rossj-Bass, and Darmagi. Today, the estate is led jointly by Angelo and his children Gaia, Rossana, and Giovanni.
