We are proud to offer this 2021 Gamay made from 100% Gamay grapes in the Rhône region of France. This expressive French red wine offers a very fruity and expressive nose, which is true to the grape variety. A well round wine with plenty of red fruits exhibiting on the palate.

Based in the town of Ruoms, 20 kilometres south of Aubenas this forward-thinking, modernist collective has done much to revive the fortunes of this ancient vine-area, which dates back to Roman times. Today they represents close to 2000 grape growers from 21 different smaller co-operatives.
