  • Gamay
  • Beaujealais-Villages
  • France
  • 2015
  • $11.50
  • Maison Jadot Website - 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
My Tasting Notes

Color: violet purple color with magenta, almost pink, rims. Deep color mostly opaque

Nose: very flowery, concentrated fruits and perfumy. Violets and red rose pedals dominate overtop fresh red and dark fruits like red currant, blueberries, raspberries and strawberries with a hint of spices.
  • Body: 2
  • Acidity: 3.5
  • Tannin: 2
  • Alcohol: 2.5
Really ripe and fruit forward with delicate flavors, a light body, and lively acidity for some fruity zing. red fruit flavors of fresh strawberries, raspberries, and red plums with dark cherries and hints of red and black peppercorn coming in on the medium-long finish. Some tannins are present in the finish, but very round and light making it a very approachable and easy drinking wine that can also go with some light colored meat, pasta, cheese, or fish dishes. Good stuff and would recommend.
