Trius 2015 Gamay Noir

I thought the 2014 was good, the 2015 is better, with this second incarnation of their Gamay under the Trius label. Craig McDonald really put some thought into this one with 33% of the wine going into stainless steel; another 30% spending 8 months in standard-sized oak barrels, and the last 40% going into large format oak barrels … with all that goes into the making the result is a delight: raspberry and cherry on the nose with a red fruit palate loaded with cherry, raspberry, a hint of smoke and some anise for added complexity – what a great job, the only question is, how does the ’16 improve on this … we’ll have to wait and see.  Price: $16.95 – Rating: ****+
