Maison Leroy Gamay 2019
Burgundy, FranceFrom the legendary Bourgogne house of Leroy. While Lalou Bize Leroy never reveals the exact source of the grapes, it is always of the highest provenance. This was the first Bourgogne Gamay she produced, and only 2000 bottles were made available (though easily 10x that could have been sold worldwide). This comes from the newly official Bourgogne Gamay AOC, and fruit mostly drawn from around Chenas. Unmistakably gamay, from first whiff of wild strawberry, wild raspberry, candied red currant fruit gliding along the slight palate, this has fine, long, sticky tannins wrapping around a pure fruited core. Acidity is bright and shining through the finish. A charming wine, and a real rarity.Tasted: 19 October 2021Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| ON | $110.00 | 750ml | consignment |
