Tasting Notes: This medium-ruby hued Gamay is sourced from a single-vineyard on the Naramata Bench and boasts an engaging, savoury nose of cured meats, bay leaf, warm rocks, onion salt and white pepper aromas with ripe berry notes adding a layer of sweetness to the developing bouquet.
Though the palate is "fruit-forward", it is by no means one-dimensional, offering fresh, wild berry acidity and flavours with added notes of iron and dry herbs and supported by mild, fine tannins. The moderate finish is balanced and palate-cleansing - perfect for food pairing. Enjoy this wine in its youth with Westcoast cusine like cedar-plank, BBQ salmon (skin on and super crispy). Drink 2015-2017.
