Dominique Piron Coq Leon 2023
Gamay | France
Plump, fleshy and bold, this fun little Beaujo packs more than the usual punch due to the inclusion of 5% of a grape known as Gamaret - a crossing of Gamay with Reichensteiner, that was created back in the 90s but never authorized for official production.
Nonetheless, scattered plantings still remain in remote villages throughout the Beaujolais and are used to boost color and add body in many of the local wines. A perfect match for hearty cold-weather fare.
