Les Deschamps Chénas Cru Gamay

Brilliant depth unstructured to this well-made gem. Mineral laden with lively red and black fruit. Damp earth, and subtle allspice.

2014. Pretty & polished. Dry and savory finish. Plush texture. Dried earth. Berry fruit with a dash of tea.

Bright and pretty.

Wow. What great depth underlined with graphite minerality and paired with ripe black & red fruit. Some turned earth, damp leaves. Already slightly mellowed but still shows some nice fresh acidity and a good tannic frame.
Drinking so nicely right now. And even better after 24h open! Do this still has some aging potential.
Such a lovely wine

Light bodied, fruit/spice notes, very versatile

Beautifully aromatic with ripe, juicy blueberries, cracked black pepper and a prominent note of violets.
On the palate this is very fruit forward, succulent & juicy, yet with a nice, cool, mineral streak and a granite note in the finish. Seemingly deconstructed yet very polished and with great purity & depth.
A great example of a cru gamay. Delicious stuff.

Black Fruit,

Super polished.

Very good wine. More savory than sweet. Dried berries with some earthy notes.

Good stuff
