Gaja Darmagi 2017

Red
Barbaresco, Italy
8.0

Rich and enveloping, with dense cassis, espresso and cedar notes flowing through a plush, generous frame. The texture is immediately appealing, though the wine's exuberant fruit currently masks its underlying structure. Shows excellent depth for Gaja's Cabernet expression. Allow 3-5 years for full development.

Gaja

Gaja is Barbaresco's most recognizable name globally, built on single-vineyard Nebbiolo from Sorì San Lorenzo, Sorì Tildìn, and Costa Russi, alongside a Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc that remain outliers in the region.
