Joie Farm 2018 Gamay 750ml

"All the grapes for this came from Bryan Hardman?s Deep Roots Vineyard. He is opening his own winery and may be keeping some of the Gamay for himself. This is a generous wine that blows a lot of Beaujolais  out of the water, with its earthy aromas of cherry and its savoury flavours of cherry and blackberry. There is an intriguing note of pepper on the finish. This wine, closed with a screw cap, won a best of class gold medal at the 2013 Riverside International Wine Competition and gold at the Northwest Wine Competition. 90 points"
