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.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Founded in 1859 by Giovanni Gaja in the village of Barbaresco, Piedmont, Gaja is one of the world's most legendary wine estates, celebrated for revolutionizing Italian viticulture. Under the visionary leadership of Angelo Gaja, who joined the family business in 1961, the winery pioneered modern techniques in the Langhe, including green harvesting, temperature-controlled fermentations, and aging in French barriques. Gaja is globally renowned for its iconic single-vineyard Nebbiolo bottlings, such as Sor'i San Lorenzo, Costa Russi, and Sperss, alongside pioneering white wines like Gaia & Rey. The family has since expanded its uncompromising pursuit of quality to Tuscany, producing acclaimed Brunello di Montalcino at Pieve Santa Restituta and Bolgheri blends at Ca' Marcanda.
