DESCRIPTION: Bass Phillip Gamay is intensely varietal with wild berries and plummy flavours. Good Gamay is noted for sour cherry and earth that make them most suited for consumption in the warmer months. These Gamay's age well over a six year period, starting with fresh sourcherries, plums and plums mellowing into soft rounded stone fruits. Pronounced varietal fruits (wild berries and plummy flavours). Fruity with firm acidity. Doesn't have the length of pinot noir but freshness and acidity give these wines a satisfying place with cold meats, terrines, charcouterire, light pasta and even seafoods.

BACKGROUND: The Gamay plot was first established in 1988 from a rare “Romaneche” clone;  8,500 - 9,000 vines/HA ; and big bunches/large berries give us a cropping rate of approx. two  tonne/acre. Packaging: 6-packs

WINEMAKER’S NOTES: The usual gamey-wild berry fruits for classical Gamay. Harmonious flavour; fills your mouth, finishing long with the same clean fruitiness. Bright, fresh, easy drinking suited to red meats. “Cru Beujolais” in style: our best Gamay yet.
