What an amazing wine. Super nose that jumps out at ya. Big cherry. Big big fucking cherry. Spices, plum, semi sweet cocoa, such aromas. Totally spellbinding. Also a sense of gamey, meaty and smokey aromas add complexity. Awesome. Palate is vibrant, deep and so juicy, with amazing fruit and terrific acid and structure. What concentration! This has tannins that are soft but ever present, but so velvety. So pure and dazzlingly fresh. Really long finish that takes over the palate. The purity of this is incredible. What a mouthfeel as well. 100% Gamay in Amphorae. — 8 years ago

Gamay in amphorae? Craziness. You being you, do you know the volume of those things? I'm figuring you do know...because that would be one aspect of being Fassy.

@Severn Goodwin the maths I’m not good at. Let me check. Might have added it to today’s offer.

It's a soft wine who prefers light body and don't want to fall asleep. Bought this for friends who like but always feels the Reds are just too strong. — 11 years ago
