Recognition
From an award-winning Colorado winemaker, we are excited to bring you this amazing new wine! The Colorado wine scene is making a name for itself growing grapes at elevation with an abundance of sunny days, cool nights, and low humidity. We’ve wanted to bring you a wine from another region (other than CA) for quite some time but just hadn’t found the perfect wine. When we were offered to get our hands on this, we jumped at the chance to make the trip over to taste, knowing this winemaker and their successes. We know you’ll love it!
Tasting Notes
Gamay is the well-known wine grape of the Beaujolais region in France. This Gamay Noir is a light-body red wine with medium acidity and low to no tannins. You could compare this to a Pinot Noir, but this one is a bit lighter than our 2016 Pinot Noir, as we think of that one as a Cab-lover’s Pinot.
On the nose, you’ll get candied cherry and pomegranate. Despite the fruity first impression, the taste of the complexity and finish is anything but. The light body, yet lingering peppery finish is quite surprising. The raspberry and cranberry notes are perfectly balanced with an earthiness and slight minerality.
Try room temp, but also lightly chilled! This wine is incredibly versatile for wine pairings! Perfect summer red, but enjoyed year-round!

Meet the Artist
Agostina is an architect who graduated from the National University of Cordoba, Argentina (2017) and is a self-taught artist. She specializes in highly detailed drawings mostly using the Stippling technique.
In 2018, she started a journey that would change her life forever. A year-and-a-half road trip from the USA to Argentina, visiting 14 countries across North and South America. The complete freedom, the constant change of scenery, and the endless amount of time for herself with a pen and notebook in her hands documenting the trip made her into the artist she is today.
When not drawing, she might be playing in the snow, reading, planning her next trip, or walking in the woods with her camera.
Her life goal: visit every corner of the world, and of course, draw it.
