Tasting-Domaine Descroix Gamay (red)-

Name: Domaine Descroix
Variety: Gamay (red)
Region: Beaujolais Nouveau
Country: France
Year: 2013
Price: $8

Shop/wine critic/winery review: From the winerys website: “Light, fresh, fruity wine, easy to drink. Serve chilled.” This was not on the official list of wines tasted at the vintage cellar on Saturday February 15. It was a substitution made when they ran out of a different wine so no review was given and I was not able to find one on the internet.





My review: Smells of fruit juice and artificial strawberry flavor. Koolaid would probably be a closer match than actual fruit juice. The taste pretty much matches up with that. This is barely wine, this really is koolaid. It should probably be served in a sippy cup rather than a glass. It wasn’t unpleasant, but it was definitely strange. I’m not sure it would be possible to pair this with anything at all. Maybe a fruit roll up.

CONCLUSION: Would not drink again


Not tasted with food
