Orofino Vineyards Gamay Celentano Vineyard 2013
Cawston, Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, CanadaFrom sloping stemwinder soils in the Similkameen comes this bright, fresh red. This savoury, lissom gamay is laced with cured meats, wild strawberry, a swipe of stony minerality throughout, and an alluring bitter cherry note on the finish. Tart and earthy rhubarb acidity carries finely spiced tannins through a lingering finish. Serve slightly chilled, this versatile wine will suit anything from grilled pizza to charcuterie to salmon. Only 100 cases produced. #GoGamayGo.Tasted: 16 December 2014Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $23.00 | 750ml | winery direct, private wine shops |
