✨ Technical Specifications
Angelo Gaja's acquisition of the historic Gromis estate in Serralunga d'Alba in 1995 marked a significant chapter in the winery's legendary Piedmontese narrative. Named 'Dagromis' ('with the Gromis family') as a respectful nod to the vineyard's original owners, this Barolo DOCG is a masterful blend of 100% Nebbiolo sourced from prime sites in both Serralunga and La Morra. The combination of Serralunga's dense, iron-rich clay-limestone soils—which impart muscular structure, deep power, and intense tannins—with the softer, more aromatic marls of La Morra creates a beautifully balanced expression of the appellation. Following traditional fermentation, the wine is aged for twelve months in barriques followed by an additional twelve months in large oak casks, resulting in a classic Barolo that marries Gaja's signature precision with the wild, savory depth 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.
