Domenica Gamay 2022

THIS NEW PLANTING OF GAMAY WAS SOURCED FROM SORRENBERG CUTTINGS - THIS IS THE PERFECT REGION FOR THIS VARIETY AND THE SIMILARITIES WITH CRU BEAUJOLAIS ARE REMARKABLE

 

"Cherry, ripe strawberry, baking spices, rosy, a little earthy, hazelnut and some mint/menthol. Medium-bodied, balanced bright acidity, a lick of tannin, cherry, hazelnut chocolate cake, flows along seamlessly, and the finish is long and fresh, with some spicy nutty flavours to close. Really good. Great drinking. What a cracking debut." - Gary Walsh, Wine Front

 

"2022 is the inaugural release of Domenica Gamay. This medium bodied red wine is a natural fit for Beechworth’s climate, elevation and soil.

Inspired by carefully farmed Cru Beaujolais, this is a Gamay to be taken seriously. Fermented in two equal sized cuvees, one fully destemmed and the other 30% whole bunch. Berries were left whole allowing for gentle extraction and maintaining purity of fruit. Aged in second, third and fourth fill barriques for 9 months.

Cool earth, mulchy undergrowth, impressions of purple fruit. An expressive wine with a structure suiting medium term ageing. A welcome addition to the Domenica vineyard." - Domenica
