Nice value quaffer with plenty of character. Light bodied but with enough chewy density to keep things interesting. On the earthy side, grainy-textured with a mineral finish. No problem finishing this bottle, none at all.

It’s a bit green, but the raspberry pastille candy flavors linger and finish mineral tang. The label says it all.

Ruby with pleasant aromas of fresh red berry fruit, which comes from Morgon. On the palate flavors of cherry and strawberry with vivid acidity, medium finish ending with fruit and mineral tang. Easy drinking wine. Great value! Tried twice!

Bright acidity, bright fruit... bright wine with an earthy touch at the finish. Made my day.

Didnt know anything about this bottle when i opened it, what a nice suprise though! Sweaty earthy funk over maraschino cherry and tart cranberry. Im not typically a gamay lover, but this is a must have for those tuesday night allstars.

Finally stumbled upon a bottle of this classic. Fun juicy carbonic bubblegum Gamay but it’s got some depth to it as well. I’m getting some nice aromatic citrus rind and a touch of ripe earth. Palate is super clean, great acid keeps my mouth watering and waiting for the next glug. Enjoyed with homemade cheeseburgers and roasted broccoli.
