Les Deux Clochers Saint-Pourçain 2012

When I’m particularly thirsty and just want to have some wine, it happens quite often that I turn myself to a Gamay based wine, not deep nor complex, but fruit forward. On a recent hot summer day, that’s exactly what happened. So I did opened a bottle of this wine I already had a few times and that had pleased me every time. Simple, fruity, fresh, good acidity level, drinks so easily in a style I like a lot. Very good (89)

Not available now at our favorite monopoly, I did enquired to the agency when it will be back on the shelves and it should come again soon. So happy to hear it, and it’s cheap too! Be aware and ready to jump on it when back at the SAQ.
