2023 Seven Springs Gamay Noir

2023 marks the first vintage we have produced both a Gamay Nouveau and a Gamay Noir, and this bottling illustrates the potential for depth of the former while being just as viscerally pleasing as the former. Rainier cherry, strawberry Bon Bon and red flowers are the liftoff for juiciness that builds itself around a line of tangy spice and acidity. A considerable finish dashed with stony minerality is somewhat unexpected and plenty welcome, just like this wine’s place at any holiday table. It may not last long there.
