A great gamay. Light body, great red fruit and slightly earthy, nice acidic tingle to keep it bright and not just juicy. For $10...it's a steal

Nice light bodied gamay. Perfect slightly chilled, a little tingle to boot

Medium ruby in color; cherry jolly ranchers, violets, and something fruity or floral I can't quite place; high acidity; medium minus tannins; tastes like pomegranates, bananas, and clay pots with a long finish. Nellie doesn't like it, but think she's just not a fan of gamay. I like it and so does Bri. Bri says it smells like Swedish Fish.

A delicious Beaujolais. Nice, bright red fruit with more complexity than expected. An easy picnic, or early evening on the patio wine. One bottle per person.

Great value Beaujolais! Everything you want from gamay; easy drinking, low tannin, a slightly acidic and unpretentious.
