Another wine from a Gamay tasting I ran in late November. As most know I reckon Gamay makes many Rose style wines look boring and since they are not to far away from Pinot, I like ‘em. We went to a lot of trouble to find this producer and at the time liked his wine but this bottle was a little disappointing. We normally bought 2 or 3 bottles of anything we liked and resampled a few days later before deciding on good examples to bring home. This had the classic gamay spice and plum but there seemed to be something else going on. It had nice length and as I recall, it went really well with dinner. If you visit beaujolais, search this domain out, it is based in Saint Amour.
