| TASTING NOTE: Hogan prefers that the estate Gamays have some oak, in this case 100% neutral French oak for 9 months, to give the wines added texture and complexity. It shows lovely brambly raspberries, plums, dark cherries, and rhubarb with pepper, herbs, and anise accents. It's smooth on the palate with modest structure then bright red berries, savoury/earthy notes, plums, red currants and subtle pepper and spice all leading to a vibrant finish. Can cellar 3+ years if so inclined but drinking great right now. Score - 92 (Rick VanSickle, winesinniagara.com, April 18, 2023) |
