Gamay from Bugey, in the commune of Anglefort. The plot is called Tomacette and is made up of clay and limestone soils. Three weeks maceration, then pressed in a vertical ratchet press. Aged in tank for nine months. Not fined or filtered, and no added SO2. 'Doudous' was the nickname of the team who first made this wine.
A little reductive initially - give this one some air. After a while, aromas of wild berries, cherries and savoury notes rise to the surface. In the mouth it has a fleshy texture that is sweet and enticing. The mouthfeel is dense and creamy, but the wine feels quite light overall. Really tasty after being open for an hour - let it breathe a bit to see its full potential.
