Gamay is probably indigenous to the region of Burgundy, where it has been cultivated since ancient times. Traders of Pinot Noir became so threatened by the popularity of this easily cultivated grape that Philip the Bold banned Gamay in 1395 to keep it from using up valuable Pinot Noir land. Fortunately, Gamay found a foothold in the vineyards of Beaujolais, the region with which it has become synonymous. This prolific grape has an easy-going fruity character. Gamay is a wine to be consumed young. This makes it particularly popular among impatient wine lovers! Of course this wine pairs beautifully with your Thanksgiving turkey but it also pairs beautifully with beef dishes, noodle casseroloes and stews. Enjoy this wine with fruit, hard cheeses, and truffles as well! Cheers! --- fr. Ghigo Press 2006
