Darmagi Langhe 2018
"Darmagi" means "what a pity" in English. Angelo Gaja's father said this disapprovingly when he learned that his son wanted to plant French grape varieties in Piedmont.
Inspired by his father's disappointment, Angelo Gaja named the vineyard below his house Darmagi, which he planted with Cabernet Sauvignon instead of Nebbiolo. He wanted to demonstrate to the wine world that Italian oenology was also capable of producing world-class Cabernet Sauvignon.

Information about the winemaker:
The family winery is now one of the best known in Italy and can look back on a centuries-old history. The success story of owner Angelo Gaja began in the 17th century when the family emigrated from Spain to Italy. In 1859, a member of the family, a grape producer in Barbaresco, laid the foundation for the current company by opening a tavern, which also served their own wines. The wines were already so popular at the end of the 19th century that they were supplied to the Italian army, among others. Already in the second generation of the family, an unusually high value was placed on quality, with the aim of retaining a predominantly upscale clientele.
