Description

Damagi Gaja is made from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes (with a small blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc) from a vineyard planted by Angelo Gaja in 1978. His father, Giovanni, unwittingly gave the wine its name. When the Cabernet Sauvignon vines replaced the Nebbiolo vines, 'Darmagi!' (what a shame) was his first comment in dialect.
