2022 Limited Release Gamay Noir

Hooray, for another Gamay! We got our hands on one of the few Washington Gamay plantings, Carousel Vineyard. This wine saw carbonic fermentation in a concrete pyramid, and was blended with some whole cluster stainless steel fermented Gamay lending flavors of red fruit and cinnamon.
