Transluscent ruby color. Nose of currant, elderberry, leather, plum, cinnamon, and earth/vermicast. Palate of tobacco, blood orange, strawberry, and stewed plum.
Balanced palate that is starting to develop secondary flavors with beguiling depth and longer finish. Seriously juicy and complex. Age your light reds! Compared to my Gamay point of reference (Lapierre Morgon), this has slightly higher acid and is less plush. Some of the fruit has slowed down, but I’m seriously impressed. 92 pts.

Great with [blood orange saffron haddock](https://i.imgur.com/IVC0Oud.jpeg) and [raddichio date salad](https://i.imgur.com/Qyc7f52.jpeg).
