Wine Description
It is a wine born out of challenge and passion, with the belief that the Langhe always give voice to great interpretations, even in white: 100% Chardonnay, a white capable of living up to the great red wines of Langa.
For the Damilano family, focused on Nebbiolo for generations, putting themselves to the test on a white vine that has already had superb Piedmontese interpretations was an important, strongly desired comparison. The name chosen for the new white, GD, is a dedication to Giacomo Damilano, founder of the winery, who had already sensed the vocation and potential of the family vineyards in the 1920s.
