La Decrue, Phillip Chevarin 2022 (Loire Valley, France)

Made from Gamay, as well as its darker-fleshed cousin Gamay Teinturier from organic vineyards between Anjou and Muscadet. After a manual harvest, the grapes are direct pressed into fiberglass and fermented with wild yeasts. Bottled unfined, unfiltered with no SO2. Juicy and delicate, with a nice balance of acidity, ripe red fruits and a mineral, salty edge.
