The 2025 Fringe Société Gamay is a vibrant and fruit-driven French Gamay sourced from the Comté Tolosan region in the south-west of France. Crafted in a fresh, modern style inspired by the drinkability of Beaujolais, the wine focuses on bright red fruit, lively acidity and soft tannins rather than heavy extraction. The nose is lifted and expressive, showing aromas of cherry, raspberry and plum alongside violet florals, subtle spice and gentle earthy notes.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with juicy acidity and a smooth, supple texture. Flavours of red berries, strawberry and dark cherry are supported by soft spice and a faint savoury edge that gives the wine balance and versatility. The style remains energetic and approachable throughout, with soft tannins and refreshing acidity carrying through a clean, lively finish. Gamay’s naturally bright fruit profile and lower tannin structure make this an easy-drinking yet characterful red that works particularly well served slightly chilled.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this Gamay is an excellent choice for customers looking for a lighter-bodied red with freshness, bright fruit and excellent food versatility. Particularly well suited to charcuterie, roast chicken, pork sausages, pizza or mushroom dishes. Best enjoyed slightly chilled while youthful and vibrant over the next 2–4 years.
