Henry Fessy 2009 Gamay (Fleurie)

Price $20

A richly aromatic wine, with swathes of sweet fruit, ripe tannins and a juicy, jammy feel. This is so generous, open, welcoming. There is structure as well, cushioned by the sweet fruits. — R.V. (10/1/2011)

Henry Fessy 2007 Gamay (Moulin-à-Vent)

Price $19

Henry Fessy 2010 Gamay (Moulin-à-Vent)

Price $20

A very structured wine, as befits this normally powerful cru. It is packed with dark tannins and minerality. The wine is angular, and you can taste the granite and schist soil. This edge of austerity is balanced by delicious fruit. — R.V. (10/1/2011)

There is an austere character to this wine, tannins edged with minerality. It has weight as well as concentration and, as compensation, sweet cherry juice to go with all this structure. — R.V. (10/1/2011)

points

Henry Fessy 2009 Gamay (Chénas)

Price $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. — R.V. (10/1/2011)
