French Gamay Wine



The fun-loving, bistro grape, gamay has explosive grapy purple fruit with a flowery bouquet. Typically light and fresh, with low tannins, gamay is very quaffable. Found in French Beaujolais; California’s "gamay beaujolais" grape is now thought to be pinot noir; "Napa gamay" may be the real thing, but there's some doubt as well. Beaujolais Nouveau has become popular through the years but has left people with the incorrect impression that Beaujolais can't produce fine wines.

Varietal: Gamay | Location: France - Beaujolais - Beaujolais-Villages
Red Wine 

Strong red purple colour. Fresh red fruits on the nose with a hint of dark cherry. Slightly spicy with a touch of grey pepper, liquorice and a touch of rose flower. The whole wine is very well balanced with a nice acidity and the tannins presence on the finish invites food pairing such as with Terrines, Charcuteries, Grilled red meat, white fish, cheese or simply as the sole wine of a meal.
