My first wine from the Upper Loire! A scrumptious treat. Very herbaceous.

Moderate plus concentration. Ruby verging on purple. Hefty aromatics of rose and pomegranate juice. Elevate acidity and tangible tannins. 14.5% abv.

Soooo good! And a welcome reminder that fantastic, undiscovered wine still exists. Crunchy, berry-laden, loaded with minerals and delicious - 2016

One of those under the radar under 20$ wines that provides the ultimate satisfaction in wine. Like a feel good movie that you won’t tell your friends you watched. Not because it’s embarrassing but because you want to enjoy it all by yourself. And that’s fine with me.

Looks like cranberry juice cocktail, cherry on the nose. Light body, soft tannins that come and go, tart and a bit acidic. Tastes like slightly cranberry-cherry juice and leather. Drank slightly chilled 2018 vintage.

Natural gamay, bursting with fruit, slightly rough finish. Heavier than expected. Bought from Buonvino

My first experience with Gamay. Pops in my mouth. Dark berry. Acidic. Yum!
