CabernetSauvignonDOPLanghe–Darmagi–Gaja

<p>Darmagi is a single vineyard, the first post-prephylloxera Cabernet planted in Piedmont, whose name derives from the Piedmontese dialect and means “what a shame”; this word was pronounced by Giovanni Gaja when he realized that he had inadvertently planted Cabernet Sauvignon instead of Nebbiolo. The grapes are fermented and macerated for about 3 weeks and then aged in wood for 24 months.</p><p>On the nose it shows a varied and well-defined bouquet with floral hints of violet and spicy notes of paprika, cassis fruit and licorice. In the glass it pours with an intense and dark ruby ​​red color; a sip of notable structure, refined and complex at the same time, and characterized by a fine tannic texture. </p><p>Excellent wine to be savored in combination with first courses with tasty sauces, mature cheeses, game, roasts, grilled and stewed meat. A drink for true connoisseurs and enthusiasts of oenological excellence.</p><p>COMBINE IT WITH: </p><h3>Technical information</h3><p>PRODUCER GayaYEAR 2013NATION ItalyFORMAT 0.75LTYPE Red StopGRADATION 14%GRAPE VARIETY Cabernet Sauvignon 95% – Merlot 3% – Cabernet Franc 2% TEMP MIN 18 °CNAME DOPTEMP MAX 20 °CREGION PiedmontCOMBINATION Meat – CheesePRODUCTION AREA Barbaresco</p><p><p>How to serve</p><p>Glass:</p><p>Large calyx</p><p>Find out more</p><p>Serve at:</p><p>18-20°C</p><p><p>When to drink it:</p><p>This wine is good straight away but you can age it 15-20 years</p><p>Production Area</p><p><p>Piedmont</p><p><h3>At the Canteen: Gaja</h3><p>More information</p>
