Pax Gamay Noir Alta Monte 2023 Review
Although Pax is known for its elegant expressions of California Syrah, the winery also produces a fair number of impressive, site-specific wines from the Gamay grape. This one has bright aromas of blueberries and blackberries on the nose. The dark fruit notes on the palate are balanced by savory hints of earth and a subtle tannins.
