✨ Technical Specifications
Gaja's DaGromis, often referred to as Gromis, pays homage to the Gromis family, the original owners of the prized vineyard in La Morra before the legendary Gaja family acquired the estate in 1995. Crafted from 100% Nebbiolo, this Barolo DOCG beautifully marries fruit sourced from the soft, calcareous clay soils of La Morra with the more structured, iron-rich terroir of Serralunga d'Alba. The wine undergoes a meticulous vinification process, including fermentation in stainless steel followed by 12 months of aging in barriques and an additional 12 months in large traditional oak casks. This thoughtful blending and aging regime yields a Barolo of remarkable harmony, balancing the ethereal, floral perfume typical of La Morra with the robust, age-worthy structure of Serralunga.
🍾 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.
