Another amazing Gamay🇫🇷 — 4 years ago
2020 vintage. A rather obscure Grand Cru Classé Saint-Emilion, but it has been classified since the start of the classification in 1955. 27 hectares in one big plot, organically farmed. Hubert de Bouard consults since 2009. Merlot and Cabernet Franc with tiny amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. A solid effort with an attractive floral nose, good fruit concentration, soft tannin and a distinctive mineral finish. Terrific value. Abv 14%. — 2 years ago
From Dec 2019 Ets Martin shipment, had 2016 on 4/30/2021. Red plum, maraschino cherry, battery smell, smoke, iodine. Low tannin. Muscular not plush. Finish moves quickly to a cedary flatness. — 4 years ago

GamayTastingDayWine#2
Different gamays (de Bouze, Chaudenay, Gamaret..) on volcanic ground. Deep purple color. Surprising nose: blood orange, green clay, lentils. The attack carries a certain volume that fades quickly. The whole is greedy. We are in the thirsty-wine category. It's original for a gamay. To drink on youth.
Différents gamay (de Bouze, Chaudenay, Gamaret..) sur terres volcaniques. Couleur profonde pourpre-violine. Nez surprenant orange sanguine, argile verte, lentilles. L’attaque porte un certain volume qui s’estompe vite. L’ensemble est gourmand. On est dans la catégorie vin de soif. C’est original pour un gamay. À boire sur la jeunesse. — 3 years ago
Côtes du Forez, seek it out if you love Gamay very Good q/p🗽 — 4 years ago
Look, I have no relevant experience with this, but AFAICT, this wine has held up really well over 11 years. It's bright, creamy, balanced, slightly oaky, with an apple character that has almost no hint of oxidation. It's like a ripe pear or something. Anyway, I enjoyed it, and for sure it wasn't a wasted $35 or whatever I paid for it at auction. So...WIN! — 4 years ago
