There’s not much Gamay in South Africa \u2013 just 13.3 hectares planted. It’s for this reason that Alex Dale wasn’t keen for me to reveal to the world the location of the two vineyards he sources this wine from. It’s freshly bottled, and needed decanting before we tasted it, but this really is a lovely wine, even this early on in its life. Alex also makes a brilliant Cinsault under the same ‘The Thirst’ label.<\/p>\n

\nVery fruity, lively nose with red cherries and plums, and a bit of that carbonic maceration florality. The palate is juicy and delicious with vibrant red cherries, some spiciness, and just a little grip. It’s not trying to be serious, but isn’t just a simple glugger, either. 90\/100<\/p>\n\n
