La Cave du Prieuré
Jongieux Gamay
Savoie, France
Fresh, dry, balanced. Note that Jongieux is the town where the winery is located. Nothing to do with the grape.

Jul 11th, 2023Bellissimo! This blew the doors off: inky w/gorgeous aromas of foresty woodland berries, darker fruit, spice, pepper, lavender & garrigue… intriguing beguiling. Med to lighter weight but wore it well with lip-smacking dark berries and warm spices on palate. Finish was a bit disjointed but I’d like to revisit in a year or 2. Bump for QPR

Dark fruit aromas with a hint of minerality. Taste is of cherry maybe cassis. Medium length. Better than average.
