"The 2023 Gamay Noir Seven Springs is a transparent ruby hue and is zesty and refreshing with a snappy personality, delivering notes of poppy red fruits, dusty earth, fresh herbs, and wildflowers. Medium-bodied, the palate has a citrusy lift with fine tannins, and it's mouthwatering and refreshing, with a fantastic mineral texture. Coming from own-rooted head-trained vines planted in 1982, which they had to replant in 2017 due to phylloxera, the wine was fermented with 100% whole clusters. Drink 2025-2035."
