Domaine des Billards (Héritiers Loron)
Saint-Amour Gamay
Great structure and nice red berry notes especially raspberry. It could use a little more time though.

May 30th, 2017Totally transformed with food. Went from boring to wow after the first bite (of broccoli nonetheless)! A cru Beaujolais (from one of the 10 towns that makes great wine!) this St-Amour is light, with red fruit and a mineral bite. Fabulous with lighter food. Gotta love a food wine!
