Description
Description
Domaine Yves Cuilleron Gamay IGP is a lively and charming red wine from the northern Rhône Valley. Bursting with aromas of red berries, wild strawberry, raspberry, and floral hints of peony and violet, it delivers a juicy, fruit-forward palate with vibrant freshness. Fine, crunchy tannins add texture and lift, making this Gamay a serious contender alongside some of the best Cru Beaujolais.
