2015 Gamay / Pinot Noir
$25.00
*** 2025 Library Notes: Even after nearly 10 years in bottle, this wine still proudly shows its whole-cluster character. Notes of orange peel and Campari shine through. Best enjoyed well-chilled. We recommend standing the bottle upright in the fridge for a few days to let it settle after transit or before serving as there is quite a bit of sediment. Due to its low-sulfur nature, this wine will develop mousiness over time. Best to enjoy the whole bottle or share with friends. I have even been told that some people, Drew… I’m talking about you!, have been know to make wine spritzer’s with this one.
