Rising Yarra Valley Gamay 2024

Share

Gamay is often seen as Pinot’s poorer cousin but I have to admit I’m a huge fan of it, whether grown within the bounds of Beaujolais or elsewhere. The Rising example is lovely, showing that same confectionery and strawberry note as the Pinot but with some slightly different, additional characters: raspberry, beetroot and tomato leaf, plus a touch of stemminess. There’s some wonderful fruit sweetness on the palate which makes it a lovely wine to sip or slurp, with a very pleasant mouthfeel and great acid. Yummo.
