Cave des Amandiers Gamay de Fully 2021

$3999

Swiss Gamay from granite heart: tiny south-facing parcels at 480-750 meters yield a Valais gem of stunning precision. Fermented spontaneously with 40% whole clusters and aged 10 months in stainless steel, this wine channels hauntingly precise red fruits anchored by robust stoniness. Sandy gneiss soils on the Rhône's banks gift remarkable gracefulness and lift, while 40-year-old vines concentrate purity. A mountain mineral whisper that defies its modest appearance.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

Rosenthal Wine Merchant

<p>Alexandre’s village-level Gamay comes from a half-hectare’s worth of tiny south-facing parcels planted at altitudes between 480 and 750 meters, in highly acidic sandy gneiss soils, with an average vine age of 40 years. Fully’s distinctive terroir produces Gamay of remarkable gracefulness and lift, with hauntingly precise red fruits anchored by a robust stoniness. This fermented spontaneously with 40% whole clusters, and spent 10 months in stainless steel followed by six months in bottle.</p>
