Full disclosure here: 1) I love Gamay, 2) not usually the Nouveau kind, and 3) the money backing this particular virtual winery one-off endeavour was partially from my Podcasting partner … that all said I am very critical of friend’s wines – I feel I have to be … Hair of the Dog is a good fruity effort with nice earthy and ripe cherry on the nose; and a palate of ripe red cherry, good acidity and a long finish. By now the wine is probably sold out, but the grapevine says Rosewood, who had to yank out their Merlot vines not too long ago, will be making a Gamay under its own label in the future – time will tell if this is rumour is true.  Price: $14.95 – Rating: ****
