Nose
Boris Champys Côteaux Bourguignons Gamay Fin 2019 smells intensely of crisp cherries, wild berry confit, sous bois, a few squirts of blood orange juice and a ripe green hint of rape and herbs. This comes across as exceedingly fresh yet intense and darkly fruity. With air also hints of cloves and Amarena cherries show.

On the palate, the Gamay is fresh and juicy with a lively acidity, dark crisp fears, sour cherries and plenty of earthy spice. The tannins are, typical for Gamay, round and silky, the wine seems mouthwatering and uncomplicated in a pleasant way. It simply tastes of more!
