Sorrenberg Gamay 2017
Victoria, AustraliaMore of this please mate. Gamay is not widely grown in Oz, but if folks tasted this small lot, I reckon there would be a lot more. This gamay is from Barry and Jan Morey's small biodynamically farmed property on the edge of Beechworth. Low intervention and high attention to detail earns this charming gamay its cult status. After a wild ferment, this is basket pressed and rested in caves beneath the Morey house before bottling. Slight in body (13.3) and hue, with raspberry, dried herbs, tobacco, wild cherry, and bamboo-strong, upright tannins. A wonderful salt wash on the lingering finish makes this moreish. #GoGamayGo.Tasted: 08 February 2019Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $68.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
