Gamay 'La Souteronne' Herve Souhaut 2022

Hervé Souhaut's Gamay 'La Souteronne' is an iconic artisanal wine: a Gamay produced in the North Rhône from vines that are almost a hundred years old. A true 'unicum' in the world of wine! The vines are between 50 and 80 years old, rooted in granite soils of Arlebosc. The grapes are vinified whole cluster in carbonic maceration, Beaujolais style. The nose opens with fragrant notes of red and black fruits, with nuances of fresh fig and smoky mineral hints that give it great personality. The sip, fresh and delicate, nevertheless presents a materiality typical of the terroir of origin, making it perfect for any meat dishes
