Bit past its prime but still a decent drop. Finish is super brief. Fruit is intact.

Sour cherries, cassis, rhubarb and flint. Done in the 'natural', transparent way, so it's excellent chilled. Clean, fresh, explosive and glou-glou. #vincentricard #touraine #gamay #pineaudaunis

A great on hand wine. When you don't wanna drink shitty Chardonnay. Great to bring to a friends house for a pregame or to have in your fridge for a late night. A glugger you don't mind sharing for any occasion and no one can be mad at

2014, Domaine Vincent Ricard, Le Clos de Vauriou, Touraine, Gamay. Just a good sipping summer Gamay. Tart red fruit, acidic and a little wet dirt.

2014,,, Domaine Vincent Ricard, Le Clos De Vauriou, Touraine, Gamay. Drinking this one on a beautiful spring evening on the patio. Grilling burgers, listening to Joshua Bell play Bach, the fountain is gurgling. Tart red fruit, little black pepper, grape sweet tarts. Nothing complex but a good acidic Gamay at a great price.

Nice and light for a Tuesday night! Gamay from the Loire - definitely worth a try.

Maybe a batch bottle? Tastes funky and fruity but nose is brutal manure and barnyard stinky. Yuck!
