This is the Armour “Je Tem” Yakima Valley Gamay Noir.
Very light magenta-tinged color. Nose has bright cherry juice, smoky crushed stone, and a hint of green tobacco leaf. Lots of flavor for such a light-colored wine. There’s a big upfront whack of crunchy cherry/red berry fruit, but it then morphs into something more minerally with a closing note of cherry cough syrup. Finish is medium length, but it’s refreshing, pure, and cleansing. Went well with our day-before-Thanksgiving Thai basil chicken.
