The Côte du Py opens with enticing aromas of black cherry, violet florals and a hint of crushed rock minerality, reflecting the famed blue-diorite terroir of the site. On the palate, medium-to-full-bodied, it offers generous ripe fruit tempered by firm, granite-derived tannins and bright acidity. There’s a savoury undercurrent—smoky spice, dark bramble and graphite—that gives it tension and structure for aging. While approachable now with decanting, this is clearly built to evolve over several years. A serious Gamay that blends elegance with depth and keeps an eye on longevity.
