Sorrenberg, Gamay 2004, Beechworth ($38)

Being gamay it was only to be expected that the jiuce seemed thin in colour on decanting. But is settled into a deep cherry colour which expressed the taste experience. The bouquet packed a delightful punch. This wine was clearly going to be a contender. The taste did not disappoint. Long finish. Smooth over the entire palate. Balanced vanilla and that cheery thing. $38 is not cheap. This wine was worth it. Lovely stuff.
