Description / Reviews
"Dagromis Barolo is a blend of 7 different vineyards over the communes of La Morra and Serralunga d’Alba. Silio, Serra dei Turchi, Cerequio from La Morra & 4 from Serralunga: Rivette, Broglio, Margheria, Colombaio. There is a beautiful mosaic here of both vine age and terrior, ranging from vines planted in 1965 in Silio in La Morra on deep compact clay silt soils to Broglio in Serralunga where the soils are sandy, light & soft. Each vineyard is fermented separately followed by maceration then aged in oak for 12 months, predominantly french oak. The differing sites are then blended and further aged in oak for another 18 months in Slovanian oak Botti. First vintage produced in 1998." - Franc About Wine, Importer
"Gaja "Dagromis" Barolo is an elegant and expressive red wine from the prestigious Gaja estate, crafted from Nebbiolo grapes sourced from select vineyards in two of Barolo's most renowned communes: La Morra and Serralunga d’Alba. The wine is named in honor of the Gromis family, who previously owned the vineyards that Gaja now cultivates, symbolizing the continuity and respect for the rich winemaking traditions of the Barolo region. "Dagromis" embodies the classic characteristics of Nebbiolo, offering a balance of power, finesse, and aging potential. On the nose, "Dagromis" presents a complex bouquet of red cherries, dark plums, and wild berries, intertwined with notes of dried roses, licorice, and earthy undertones. Subtle hints of spice, tobacco, and a touch of tar add depth to the aromatic profile. The palate is full-bodied yet refined, with firm, velvety tannins and bright acidity that support flavors of ripe red fruit, herbs, and a touch of minerality. The wine finishes long and polished, showcasing the structured elegance that defines great Barolo." - K&L Merchants, Exporter
