This is the third vintage of Gamay produce by Lyons Will Estate, with the fermentation being 100% whole bunch with 65% of the grapes undergoing carbonic maceration. The resulting wine has crunch, spice and verve and is an excellent representation of the vibrant, yet textural wines that can be made from Gamay.
The palate focuses on cherry and strawberry with an understated herbaceous thread that when combined with gentle whole bunch spice gives a wonderful texture to the wine. The length shows punchy red berry fruit with a savoury twist and very good length.
