 Tasted by nicefish on 3/18/2022 & rated 91 points: Cranberry and citrus on the nose. Pretty much the same on the palate. Little bitterness, in a good way. Always nice and refreshing. What it lacks in a sustained finish, it makes up for in sheer flavor. (438 views)
 Tasted by rjonwine@gmail.com on 9/18/2021 & rated 91 points: Light medium ruby color; fresh, savory, cranberry, red berry nose; light-medium bodied, silky, tart red berry, cranberry palate with good balancing acidity; a delightfully food friendly lighter style red; medium-plus finish (12.6% alcohol; screwcap) (823 views)
 Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 9/15/2021: Green farts, and some good red fruit to it. And then a bit tight on the palate. Interesting, if not pleasing. (795 views)
 Tasted by 1fatcat on 2/25/2021: marjoram, cranberry sauce, dried pomegranate, confectioner's sugar, terra cotta. light color, cool, tart, lightly astringent and bitter. (587 views)

Gamay Noir

Varietal character (Appellation America)

USA

American wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.

California

2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson
