I'm not sure why Gamay doesn't get more respect in Ontario ... yeah I get the whole "Beaujolais is bad" connotation from those Nouveaus you drank back in the 70's and 80's, but Ontario is not France and there are very few Nouveaus made here in the Great White North. This Colio version has a pretty cherry nose, while the palate is loaded with spiced black cherry and vanilla nuances. The finish also impresses with black cherry and cinnamon ... all this adds up to is a serious wine with no Nouveau candiedness; and isn't that that way Gamay should be? Price: $15.75 - Rating: ****+
