What is Gamay

Gamay is the sole red grape in the Beaujolais region of France. Gamay can produce numerous styles of wine, from the fresh, fruity and easy-to-drink Beaujolais Nouveau to the serious, more concentrated and age-worthy Beaujolais Crus. Gamay-based wines commonly produce aromas and flavors of bright red cherry and strawberry against a soft mouthfeel of moderate acidity and delicate tannins. You can use Wine Enthusiast’s online Buying Guide to find the top-rated Gamay among our extensive Gamay wine reviews and easy-to-use database. Our Gamay reviews will give you a general idea what to expect from wines made from Gamay, and will help you find one that best suits your needs.

Gamay grapes are found in red, rose, and sparkling wines.
