Le Printemps Fleurie Gamay



This is fantastic. Just dusted granite at first but following the fruit and pure country smells develop beautifully: dew on the trees, fresh picked berries, manure. Piercing tart cherry and sour, mashed, fermenting fruit, and floral scents. Then the palate has the sweetness of cherry candy. Anise. Nutmeg. Long flavors. Completely transparent, all the sediment has settled out. Just beautiful. This is how natural wine should be.

Dark fruit on the leaner side (leaf day) and nice notes of minerals and earth. Tasty with Szechuan cumin lamb and dry chile chicken.
