2023 13th Street “Vin Gris” Gamay

Vin Gris is a classic French winemaking technique where full bunches of red grapes are put into the press and the free-run juice is collected. For two years in a row, the 13^th Street Vin Gris Gamay was one of the top wines in our Rose tasting marathon, this time amongst over 93 roses tasted. The colour is a pure crystal light pink. Aromas of orchard fruits, light red berries, hint of strawberry cream, and a spark of herbs. The palate is crisp and fresh but also offers a nice weight on the mid-palate. Flavours of wild raspberry, peach, cherry blossom with a lining of citrus peel on the finish. One of the most exceptional roses of the season! (July 6, 2024). 1000 cases produced.
