La Muse Val de Loire Gamay 2022

Vin Chicago: 89 Points

(7/2023) Such a tasty little French red! Gamay, the grape of Beaujolais, has been grown in this granitic soiled outlet of Northern France for a long time. Smack dab in the middle Muscadet country, just before the Loire empties into the Atlantic, this small family-owned offering gives flavor and structure qualities similar to a fine Cru Beaujolais. Look for juicy red berry fruits, hints of earth and flowers, and a grippy front-of-mouth Gamay chew, finishing fresh and bright. Perfect with a chill for warm weather outdoor gatherings, with roast chicken anytime, or seafood pasta dishes!
