As a pioneer of innovative techniques and classic French varietals in the Piedmont, the tradition-bound local farmers sometimes thought Angelo Gaja was sadly misguided. Darmagi is Piedmontese for what a pity, a comment Angelo's father, Giovanni, uttered when he passed the vineyard as it was being converted from Nebbiolo to Cabernet Sauvignon in 1978. Undeterred, Angelo persisted--and changed the face of Italian winemaking.
Aroma: Opulent layers of concentrated fruit.
Taste: Though very Cabernet in character, Darmagi owes its distinctive, austere personality to the unique terroir of Barbaresco. Excellent fruit with strong cassis flavors and impressive power on the palate carry through to the long finish with persistent soft tannins. Great aging potential.
