Importer notes: "Gamay was once very popular in Burgundy until it was outlawed in 1395. Today just a few hundred hectares of Gamay exist in Burgundy and this is one of the finest examples you will find showing great depth from small parcels planted in the '50s. This is a beautiful and rare opportunity to enjoy classic Gamay in the historic hills above Pommard in Burgundy. This old vine Gamay is full of dark fruits and rocky minerality. The aromas are of violet, blackberry, wet topsoil, and smoked pepper followed by a dense palate with soft dusty tannins, making for a pleasurable finish."
