Beautiful thread of herbs and strong stoniness on the finish. Much more developed, complex, and less fruit driven than it was several years ago. Excellent!

I enjoyed it so much that I subsequently purchased 3 more bottles. I think it's a lovely summer red. Not your "typical" Gamay. I'm curious how it will age.
