Malivoire 2006 Gamay   

Hits:389
Rating:5,00 (1 Votes)
Date added;:17.Jun.2008
Author :Michael Pinkus - Grape Guy
DescriptionDescription  Those who know me know I have a soft spot in my heart for Gamay, so when I hear owner Martin Malivoire speak poetically about how the Gamay grape being perfectly suited for Ontario I get weak in the knees. So few wineries realize the potential of this grape in Ontario. 2006 was a decent enough year and this Gamay turned out decent in its own right. Light strawberry fruit on the nose leads to a touch of earthiness with good red fruit flavours. This one needs a chill to really show what it can do. Price: $17.00
