This has long been a benchmark for Ontario gamay, and a staple at our abode. Consistently good year after year, but I like the extra bit of richness that it delivers in the warmer vintages, and this is one such. Food-friendly, savoury, and delicious.

After fermentation in steel tanks, 30% of the wine is aged in neutral oak (90% French/10% American) for 6 months. Cherry, raspberry jam, cinnamon, cola, wet leaves, damp forest floor. The finish isn't long but there's some tongue tingling pepper. Well balanced acid and alcohol (12%) makes for a pleasant wine.
