Domaine Dominique Piron 2009 Domaine Piron-Lameloise Gamay (Chénas)
- $21
Granite soil with strata of quartz gives this wine its intense texture, very structured and tight. It’s at a young stage, the red currant and dark cherry fruits integrating with the firm character of the wine. Keep for two years.

Henry Fessy 2009 Gamay (Chénas)
- $19
Sweet plum juice and strawberry flavors, a typical wine of the vintage. Acidity and tannins are well integrated into the ripe character of this delicious wine.

A sweet-fruited wine with flavors of raisins and dried cherries along with fresh red berry fruit and acidity. The wine has some structure and an attractive lightness.

Georges Duboeuf 2008 Flower Label Gamay (Chénas)
- $14
A firm, properly tannic wine, with good dense structure and some powerful black berry fruits. The acidity shoots through the fruit, giving a delicious early juiciness. The tannins promise a good development - worth keeping.

Château du Chénas 2007 Sélection de la Hanté Gamay (Chénas)
- $16
For a 2007 in Beaujolais, this has some weight. True, the fruit has more bubble gum flavor than intensity, but, with a tight band of dry tannins, there is substance in the structure and in the strawberry flavors. Age over the next year.
