Arka plan
Köken ve tarih
Also a natural crossing of Pinot Noir and Gouais Blanc, Gamay first appears in Burgundian records in the 14th century — and almost immediately ran into trouble. In 1395, Philip the Bold, Duke of Burgundy, issued a famous edict denouncing Gamay as a "very bad and disloyal plant" and banning it from Burgundy's best vineyards in favor of the nobler Pinot Noir, pushing its cultivation south into the granite hills of Beaujolais, where it has remained the defining grape ever since.
For much of the 20th century Gamay was known internationally mainly through Beaujolais Nouveau, a simple, fruity wine released with fanfare each November just weeks after harvest. That reputation obscures the grape's real potential: the ten Beaujolais Crus — Morgon, Moulin-à-Vent, Fleurie, and others — show that on the right granite soils, Gamay can produce structured, age-worthy wines far removed from its Nouveau image.
