Professional Review: Gamay is a dark-skinned grape variety famous for producing the light-style red wines of Beaujolais. While the variety offers fresh red fruit and candied aromas, it typically delivers little in the way of flavor concentration and body weight.
My Review: This was one of the most unique smelling red wines I've had so far. It smelled like yogurt, specifically strawberry yogurt with fruit at the bottom. It also had a very unique color. It was bright violet, not the usual black or dark red. I liked the taste of it. It didn't have a lot of tannins but had a great finish. I like this red wine. I had this wine at a tasting without a meal.
