Unbalanced. Tart fruit, bizarrely dry tannins mid-palate on. Thought it might open up over a day or two, but never did.

Juicy blackberry flavor, light body, but drying tannins that I don't love here

Decent gamay from flatiron. Pretty dark and tart for a gamay. 16 bucks

Perfect wine for me. Natural wine. Loire Valley. Light, easy drinking, clean finish. Stanley’s Wet Goods. Buy again.

Chillable in more ways than one. Good for drinking with a friend who "doesn't like wine." Not because it's approachable and easy drinking, but because I got to drink most of it.

Maybe this bottle didn’t survive the trip from nyc. It is dark and mouse-y. Too heavy for Gamay.
