Darmagi

Steaks and grilled Red Meats, Wild Game, Roasted Pork, Prime Rib.

Planted in 1978, Darmagi is Angelo Gaja’s tribute to the prestigious Cabernet sauvignon variety, and a clear sign of the peculiar Langhe expression in wines, even from non-traditional varieties.

Fermentation and maceration for around three weeks followed by ageing in oak for 24 months.

The story of the Gaja Winery can be traced to a singular founding purpose: to produce original wines with a sense of place which reflect the tradition and culture of those who made it. This philosophy has inspired five generations of impeccable winemaking. It started over 150 years ago when Giovanni Gaja opened a small restaurant in Barbaresco making wine to complement the food he served. In 1859 he founded the Gaja Winery producing some of the first wine from Piedmont to be bottled and sold outside the region. Ever since the winery has been shaped by each generation’s hand notably that of Angelo Gaja. Under Angelo's direction the the native Nebbiolo grape was elevated to world-class esteem.
