Morantin, Noella 2023 Mon Cher

This is a beautiful Gamay from the talented Noella Morantin, who acquired part of the Clos Roche Blanche vineyard and other parcels above the Cher River in Pouillé, Touraine. From 35 year-old vines, vinified in carbonic maceration, showing lovely aromas of morello cherry, strawberry and red currant with hints of rose and forest floor. The palate is lively and bright with ripe sappy red fruits, earth, mineral and citrus flavors that continue in the refreshing finish. This is a very pretty and versatile wine that will accompany charcuterie, chicken and pork dishes and mild cheeses. Serve cool and enjoy!
