Lucky You, a linked Palate Character!

This is a predominantly Smooth & Silky wine, but it shares structural nuances of Tone & Backbone as described in the tasting note below.

Tasting Notes
Straddling Smooth & Silky and Tone & Backbone, this Beaujolais is medium-bodied with plus-acidity and tannins. There are flavors of red berries and black cherry fruit, followed by subtle notes of lavender and fresh wild herbs. The wine finishes with aromas of forest floor, subtle spice, and pastille in the mineral-driven finish.

Gamay
100% Ga-MAY
Gamay is a very old Burgundian variety often overshadowed by Pinot Noir. In the past, Gamay wines were often simple light and fruity wines, but old vine Gamay, especially Cru wines in Beaujolais have the potential to make very serious age-worthy wines with complex red and dark fruit, spice, and floral components at reasonable prices, especially for the serious complexity found in these wines.
