2024 Uva Non Grata Gamay

Gamay from near Beaujolais but not quite in Beaujolais - that's how you get a tasty, super slurpable regional French red for not very much money.

Uva Non Grata is a bouncy red that is simply labelled as Vin de France, though it comes from vineyards to the north-west of Lyon on the way to Beaujolais itself.

Traditional carbonic maceration (where the juice starts to ferment inside the grape before the skin is broken by crushing) ensures the aromatic red berry boom and a fruit vibe throughout.
