1996 Touraine Gamay Clos Roche Blanche

1996 Touraine Gamay, Clos Roche Blanche


Continuing the Gamay theme in this week of the launch of the 2010 Beaujolais Nouveau, the 1996 Touraine Gamay from Clos Roche Blanche – still delightfully fruity (but no bananas) and youthful – now à point, although it should continue to drink well for a number of years. This 1996 Gamay has long been excellent and a clear example that well made Gamay de Touraine can age well.
