Louis Latour Gamay Bourgogne 2016
Burgundy, FranceGamay from declassified Beaujolais Crus can use the term Bourgogne Gamay as of the 2011 vintage, as is the case with this Louis Latour. It is 85 to 90 percent cru, mostly Chenas, Régnié and Moulin-a-Vent, with 10 percent pinot noir from Burgundy. The nose is showing a bit of mushroom and oak with brighter fruits underneath. The attack is fresh with bright red fruit and a splash of pepper, licorice, and black tea in the finish. Richer than Beaujolais Village and not quite as cerebral as Cru Bojo. Great mid-week red with ham or sausages.Tasted: 11 October 2019Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $25.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
