Palate
On the palate, ripe raspberries, cherry syrup, and powder-light tannins, carry all this juicy red fruit onwards through the wine’s moreish palate. The fine structure with warming notes of cinnamon and nutmeg, build out the dimensions of Estate Gamay Noir ’25 adding to its intense Gamay quench-ability.

Vinification
The unique ‘maceration carbonique’ fermentation, which enhances the fruit and floral aromas of the wine, was used for 68% of the grapes. The other 32% received a traditional, warm, red wine fermentation. The resulting wines completed their malolactic fermentation and were matured for eight weeks in seasoned French oak barrels, before blending and bottling.
