The Wine:
Gamay is such a satisfying grape for a winemaker, with all of the lift and depth of Pinot Noir and far fewer of the sleepless nights. Where last vintage gave strawberries and red lollies, this is deeper, savourier and tending towards the mulberry spectrum. This wine bears essentially no relation to the cloying Gamay styles that give the varietal its unfortunate reputation for simplicity. Balanced, soft, and very easy to love. 100% Gamay from Brackenwood in Kutipo. 100% whole bunch fermentation in concrete open fermenters. 15 days on skin and pressed to 2- to 3-year old French barriques for 10 months. Bottled unfiltered and unfined.
