A nice mix of sour cranberries, earthiness, pepper and a very dark mineral finish. Lovely peony edge to the nose which gives this away as Gamay. Matched well with grilled tuna. Restrained but not delicate.
Score: 91. Relative to expectations: +

This is excellent. Oregon really does a nice job with Gamay. Fruit flavors are sour berry and cranberry with a huge pepper streak right through the middle. Let spiciness contrasted with the fruit is really enjoyable. We paired this with Thai food and it was fantastic.

As mentioned in the other note, getting a lot of earthiness and sour berry notes that I haven't really experience in Gamay before, and I'm really digging it!

Surprisingly earthy nose, dark fruit palate, sour (in a good way) finish. Thicker mouthfeel than anticipated. Quite enjoyable, would like to drink again.
