Bachelder Kirby Gamay Noir 45% Whole Cluster 2024

Four Mile Creek, Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, CanadaThis wine opens with some funk, perhaps reduction or simply a smoky, stemmy character. At 45% whole cluster, the fruit seems suppressed, giving it a green, mulchy character. The palate is broad and, at this point, unfocused. Chunky and short, Bachelder says this wine will gain complexity and nuance with age. We hope so.Tasted: 17 April 2026Tasted by: Geoffrey Moss and Anthony GismondiPrices:
