Vin de Pays de Vaucluse Gamay

This Gamay is expertly crafted, well balanced, and easy drinking

Right off the bat, give 30-1 hour to open up. Super earthy, dry dirt and even meaty. Practically no fruit for gamay, but still very enjoyable.

Watered down cherry kool aid, dusty roses, stemmy. Weird. Once we realized it was Gamay and let it breathe a bit, we liked it better.

2013. Bright nice fruit. Easy drinking.

A bit sharp, but pretty good for $6.

Nice Xmas Bordeaux

Bitter earthiness with dark fruits, like sour blackberries. Surprised to learn this is gamay, b/c it seems like a Grenache-based blend. Light in the middle. Finish disappears quickly. But still, not bad for $5. Doesn't have the acid or structure to last much longer.

Good wine, dry but not too acid. Light not syrupy.

Slightly medicinal in flavor. Drinkable but not planning on buying again.

Lovely color of blood and dust. Floral aroma of roses and lavender. Floral and soft flavour with a hint of navel orange. Elegant.

Still drinking very nicely. Rye and apples on the nose. Balanced and elegant. Super good deal at $5 at Grocery Outlet!
