The best Canadian Gamay I've tasted to date (and there have been a lot ;) Medium-bodied, peppery with fleshy ripe dark plums. Supple and smooth. Only 13 barrels produced. Pair with grilled chicken.

Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

This is a wonderful summer red wine option - try with a slight chill. Lots of cherry, strawberry, black pepper and some warm spice on the nose. Medium bodied, bright acidity, and some light tannins mingle with berry and spice on the palate. Enjoy with grilled veggie kebabs on a warm summer evening.
Andrea Shapiro rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Love this gorgeous Gamay from British Columbia’s Robin Ridge Winery in the Similkameen Valley. A very pretty medium purple coloured with blueberry, anise and light earth aromas on the nose. Flavours are crisp and tart, with sour cherry, pomegranate and and limestone minerals lingering at the back. Brisk, mouthwatering acidity with a medium body and finish with fresh cut herbs carrying onward. An awesome, delicious pairing with pork chops and mixed greens.
