More of that catnip. A nuanced and developed version of Gamay that just dances on the palate. Fruit doing a tango with tannin, which showed up a bit late to the party because it was doing a foxtrot with the acidity in the hallway. Brilliant juice.

Nice ruby color with a nose of bright cherry. On the pallet is a tart cherry with ripe tannins. Medium acidity and a finish of ripe plum.

The 2015 is pretty tannic, especially for a gamay. Probably much nicer in 3-5 years b

Light and tangy! The bright acidity and underlying funk opens up nicely and pairs with anything from seafood to dessert!
