  I used the natty element to our advantage, pairing with Italian cold but subs w/ vinegarette. Great pairing, and redeeming for the wine.

  Leather, over ripe red wild berries, over ripe red plums, dust and sand on the nose. High intensity of aromas. No one will ever believe me, but I could blind this as good California Zinfandel if I didn't taste it. The palate, of course, tastes much more like Gamay. Driven by minerality, it adds flavors of violet petals, tea leaves, wet stone and fresh cracked black pepper. The fruits also change condition to merely "ripe". Medium + intensity of flavors. Simultaneously bright, fun and complex.
  
  Medium body with medium acid and medium - tannins. Drink now, it's in a great place and I don't see it improving. Excellent pairing with sauteed salmon.

  drank this after demolishing a very nice Alsace Pinot blanc. It went so well with the chicken tajine i had prepared with green olives, preserved lemons and chick peas and dried apricots.
  Quite a lot of plummy fruit and cherries, dried olives, nice acid balance, probablycoild have waited a few more years before drinking. It was bright, energetic and more full bodied than expected

  Lovely and intense ruby color with some rim variation. Drinking nicely now but has, at least 3 or 4 years to go. Complex highly aromatic nose that begins with Gamay Noir typical pretty candied fruit bowl followed by baking spices and some sweet herbs like majoram or valencia orange. (i sense the connection to Bourgogne here with the solft texture but also something like a slightly oxidized pinot. Similar flavors on the palate adding blueberries. Nice tart acidity to balance the fruit, low tannin and a mouthfeel that caresses the tongue and gums. Moderate distinctive finish. A unique wine.
