Verdier Logel Poycelan Gamay Cotes du Forez - 2022 (750ml)
The Côtes du Forez appellation is located between the Loire and Allier rivers in the center of France. The nearest town of note is St. Etienne which was significant to the booming mining industry that dominated the region through the nineteenth century. The miners required a lot of wine to quench their thirst and as late as 1930 there were 5000 hectares planted in Côtes du Forez. Today, there are less than 200.
This Gamay wine is made from a unique vineyard. Jacky, the winemaker, planted about 2 acres to a massive range of Gamay. He sourced the bud wood from every Gamay vine he could find in the local environment, from hedgerows, to wild-growing vines. Over 1000 vine cuttings were collected and planted to the vineyard which produces this wine.
