Domaine des Braves Gamay 2018

93
Domaine des Braves
Varietal: Gamay
Vintage: 2018
Country of Origin: France
Appellation: Regnie
Retail Price: $21.99

Tasting Notes: Regnie is the youngest of all the crus in Beaujolais, but this wine is sure making its mark on my mind. Purple flowers erupt from the glass with loads of blackberry and plum aromatics. The palate is serious for Beaujolais, but not so much that it can’t be consumed in its youth. The soft tannins are in check, and fold perfectly into the kirsch and blackberry liqueur flavors of this delectable wine.
