Haywire Gamay 2021
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaA new year, a new label, a new wine, and a new winery name. Okanagan Crush Pad has shifted its name to Haywire Winery, reflecting the growing importance of its leading brand and the company's shift away from being a custom crush facility. With the change comes new branding and this new Haywire Gamay, incorporating 75% whole cluster. Fleshy black plum, black raspberry, is cut with a tart blackcurrant acidity and wrapped with soft, cushioned tannins across a bright, taut frame. This darker shaded gamay comes with a lot of bright peppery freshness, and is ready to crack and enjoy now with mushrooms /pork.Tasted: 23 January 2023Tasted by: Prices:BC | $28.99 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers |
