Domaine des Rutissons
Mes P'tits Gars Gamay
Savoie, France
Mountain Gamay is perfect for a very Alpine like day in NYC with over a foot of snow. Nose is wild and brambly with with flowers, blackberry fruit and minerals. Lovely earth. Love the wild expressive character of this nose. Palate is bright, juicy and red fruited with mid season cherries that have a nice lasting texture. Really fresh, pure and balanced. Excellent wine. Great concentration. For a rustic mountain Gamay this is executed perfectly.
9.1 to 9.2 as this airs. Rounder and more clearly defined fruit. Delicious.

Cool Mountain Gamay. Smells like a grab of cold forest floor - a fist full of damp earth, melting snow, and pine needles. Mortar and Pestle of dark red cherries and fresh juniper. Wild, but very pretty, with a soft texture balanced by acid and a little crunch.
