Cave Spring Gamay
Cave Spring Gamay
Made with 100% Gamay grapes grown from the Cave Spring Vineyard, nestled on a gently sloping terrace of the Niagara Escarpment overlooking Lake Ontario. In this hillside terroir, a combination of limestone-clay soils, elevation and moderating on-shore breezes delivers a singular expression of Gamay, exhibiting bold, invigorating fruit with overtones of pepper and spice. On the nose, aromas of red cherry, tobacco leaf, white pepper and tapioca over notes of peppermint, cinnamon and ginger. The palate is medium-bodied with a creamy, pomegranate-tinged attack followed by juicy red currant fruit woven into refined tannins. Delicate acidity provides lift and definition giving way to concentrated black raspberry and blueberry fruit and lingering, savory accents of fresh thyme and sage.
