For number 3 in this Gamay focus, we are heading to the Similkameen Valley in Canada’s British Columbia. It was served at a small dinner I attended last night in Niagara Falls, and of the several bottles served this was the first to be drained.<\/p>\n
Canada does well with Gamay, but most of it is in Niagara. Out west, in British Columbia, there is very little of it, but in the cooler spots (like the Similkameen), this wine suggests that more should be planted. (Although, I suspect it isn’t he easiest to sell.)<\/p>\n
Interesting fact: Orofino is Canada’s only straw bale winery.<\/p>\n

\nThis deliciously drinkable Gamay is the real deal, with more than a hint of seriousness. It’s bright, juicy and berryish with lovely fresh, detailed cherry fruit. Quite sappy and focused with lovely balance. 92\/100<\/p>\n\n
