Amoise Amphora Gamay Noir 2023

Description

For those looking for a lighter style of red wine, this Gamay Noir is soft on the palate, with fresh strawberries, bramble and spicy mouth watering finish. Definitely one to be served lightly chilled! The wine is super fresh and delicate from its time spent in contact with the clay amphora.

This Gamay Noir is from the exceptional Two Terraces vineyard in the Mangatahi Terraces, Hawke’s Bay. Ian and Linda Quinn are conscientious and detail oriented growers with the quality of their grapes being exceptional. I have been farming my allocated rows biodynamically for four years & the grapes are certified BioGro organic. The vinification was 100% carbonic maceration (whole grape bunches, no juice) for two weeks. No additions at any stage, including sulphur. The wine is unfiltered and unfined.
