Tasting profile
Structure: light-bodied, low tannin, high acidity, dry
Gamay is barely grown in Australia, and Sorrenberg's Beechworth planting is among the country's best-known — the region sits high in Victoria's north-east on granitic soils, which is exactly the combination the variety enjoys in Beaujolais. Red cherry and raspberry with violet, black pepper and a stony granite finish. Light-bodied with fine, silky tannin and bright acidity. Perfumed and crunchy rather than weighty, and very good served slightly cool.
