Gilles Bonnefoy Migmatite Gamay sur Granit Côtes du Forez 2015

Dense and bright ruby, almost purple color. Nose of red fruits, spices, flowers, earth, it’s complex and have a great minerality. On the palate the wine have depth but is not heavy, it’s round but have a good acidity, it’s bright but not thin. The flavors are tight and the earthy and flowery side of the wine is there and the finish shows the spices and minerality again. This is a pretty good gamay based wine. Very good+ (90)

Made of gamay. Organic and biodynamic certified (Demeter). Alcohol level of 11,5%
