Pothiers 2022 Côte Roannaise Rouge “Domaine”

100% Gamay. Strawberries, raspberries, violets, and mineral notes. Light- to medium-bodied, and utterly easy-going and quaffable for when you are craving a juicy yet subtly complex red that can take a chill. Grown in granite soils due west of the Cru Villages of Beaujolais, but near the beginning of the Loire river. Tiny bit of old oak, but ultimately fresh and delicious.
