Wine Overview
The Gaja Darmagi 2017 is a powerful tribute to the versatility and grandeur of Cabernet Sauvignon, meticulously crafted by the renowned Angelo Gaja in the celebrated Langhe region of Piedmont, Italy. This exceptional wine reflects Gaja's unwavering vision when he first planted the noble variety of Cabernet Sauvignon in the Langhe. The 2017 vintage is a concentrated yet elegant masterpiece, with a harmonious blend of ripe fruit and subtle earthy undertones.

Tasting Notes
On the nose, the Gaja Darmagi 2017 opens with an intense bouquet of cassis and quince, which gradually evolves into deeper layers of tamarind and a distinct vegetal note of tomato leaf. The palate is velvety and full-bodied, showcasing a rich medley of black currant, fresh plum, and hints of ripe dark fruit. The finish is both spicy and sophisticated, with traces of black pepper and cloves adding depth and complexity. Despite its fleshy and fruity nature, the wine maintains an exceptional level of refinement and elegance, a hallmark of Gaja's craftsmanship.

Ageing and Oak Influence
The Gaja Darmagi 2017 spent 24 months in oak barrels, which imparted a subtle yet integral layer of richness to the wine. This careful maturation process has allowed the wine to evolve into a refined and balanced expression of Cabernet Sauvignon, with the oak influence complementing the natural freshness and fruitiness of the wine.

Gaja Darmagi: A Tribute to Cabernet Sauvignon
Angelo Gaja’s Darmagi is a pioneering work, showcasing his deep respect for the global influence of Cabernet Sauvignon while highlighting the distinctive terroir of Langhe. Darmagi is not only a testament to the potential of non-traditional grape varieties in this iconic region, but it also exemplifies the harmonious relationship between Italian winemaking tradition and innovation.
