Really bright and floral on the nose, brimming with crunchy fruits of dark cherries and tart raspberries, stem-like hints and minerally tones. On the palate it is light in weight, savory and massively fresh. Very lifted with kind tannic bite, it is exactly as drinkable I expect a 2021 to be from this address. The fruit ripeness might be on a tad lower side for those accustomed to the recent hot vintages but for me it’s just right. Despite the crunchiness there is also some spicy warmth to it - probably due to the volcanic terroir - that I find very intriguing and delicious. While very gulpable this also has character and depth. Overall, a terrific bottle of Gamay.
