Wine of the Month - February 2012
Colio Estate Vineyards 2008 Gamay Noir 

There is not a large production of Gamay Noir in Essex county and when it does find its way into a bottle of wine it is often used as a blending grape.

Colio's Gamay Noir is Lake Erie North Shore only 100% Gamay wine!

Tasty spice and black pepper notes along with a nice balance of cherry fruits are the recipe for this delicious red wine.

    Gamay / Chambourcin, med dry

    Winemaker’s Notes:
    She’s back and she’s better than ever! Ruby Tuesday is definitely our wine of choice for weddings and large events. Ruby Tuesday’s youthful gamay is balanced nicely with the touch of tannins from her Chambourcin side. From nose to finish, Ruby Tuesday is a crowd pleaser through and through.
