Domaine Manoir du Carra (Gamay)
Name: Domaine Manoir du Carra
Variety: Gamay (Beaujolais)
Region: Burgundy
Country: France
Year: 2011
Price: $10.95
Winery review: Redolent of strawberries and roses, fragrant and medium bodied. Refreshing, tart finish.
My review: Smells very light and fruity -- blackberry and cherry mainly but a hint of strawberry as well. Has a bit of heat on the nose. Tastes pretty much like it smells. Very light and fruity with a strong tart finish. Aftertaste has elements of peach/cantelope to it... maybe even pear? Pretty dry but not bitter. Seems like a white whine trapped in a red wines body.
I tasted this on its own without food.
