The Domaine du Moulin Camus is based in Vallet, a small town to the West of Nantes within the Loire region. This wine is made from 100% Gamay. It is soft and light with lovely red fruit, a mineral streak and only a touch of tannin. This would match well with lighter dishes and would go well with meatier fish. On a hot day it can be chilled, making it an excellent Summer wine.
This is an unusual red, made from vineyards in the Muscadet region: an area known almost exclusively for white wines, and made with Gamay. This is not, however, some shy and retiring light red that thinks it's a white. No, this has guts like no other Gamay from this far north. Dense fruits of morello cherries & Victoria plums, with a satisfyingly full mid-palate, but none of the rasping acidity you find in less expensive Gamay's. This wine has real attitude!
