(26 September 2008)
After our quick visit to the Clos Roche Blanche, and with their 2007 Gamay being recommended by the NY Times, it seemed only sensible to drink a bottle of the Gamay this evening. We stopped off at Philippe Goulet’s excellent butcher’s shop in Saint-Georges-sur-Cher to buy a veal kidney, which I served with a cream and mushroom sauce which, rather surprisingly, went extremely well with the soft and silky Gamay. The 2007 is lighter than some of the Clos Roche Blanche’s other vintages of Gamay but is a real success for this difficult year.
