"A wine of exquisite purity and class, the 2023 Gamay Noir Alpine Peaks is positively stellar. Crushed flowers, mint, dried cherry, orange peel, cedar and tobacco are all beautifully lifted in the glass. Readers will find a wine of understated structure. The long, clean finish is compelling." -AG, 1/2025
