    FUSO

    Gamay Saint Romain ‘Game’

    France, Loire Valley, Côte Roannaise, AOP Côtes du Forez

    Red

    Winery Overview

    If any country can teach us about life’s small pleasures – such as enjoying a delicious and characterful daily drinker –  it’s Italy!

    FUSO’s our project to search for and bottle natural wines from farmers we know here in Italy. We work with them choosing specific vineyards and are present for fermentation, élevage, sample tasting, and eventual bottling. A part of our team lives full-time in Italy, so we’re in a unique position to be close to the production side.

    These are great introductions to natural wines, and you’ll find them chilling in our fridges at home. 

    A couple more details of what FUSO is all about: • Terroir wines where grape variety and soil are the stars. • Made by farmers (not tank-farms). • Certified Organic (or practicing organic wineries in conversion). • Native yeasts fermentations. • Unfiltered or lightly filtered. • Low sulphur (45 mg/l or less of added SO2). • Delicious with alcohol levels between 12% – 13%.

    Terroir

    Grown at 450 meters (1,400 feet) in granitic hills, the vines for this wine are 40 years old.

    Gamay Saint-Romain is an old local variant of Beaujolais Gamay. While its exact origin remains uncertain, the earliest records trace it back to Benedictine monks in the 13th century. Planted on well-draining granitic soils shaped by the erosion of the volcanic Massif Central, it ripens later than its Beaujolais cousin, delivering subtle spicy peppery notes while retaining vibrant natural freshness.

    Vinification

    50% whole cluster fermentation. Native yeasts. 75% short 4-day maceration in concrete and stainless steel, 20% 12-day maceration aged 10 months in concrete, and 5% short maceration aged in amphora.

    Tasting Notes

    ‘Gamé’ shows a deep crimson-raspberry hue with a light robe, the result of short maceration, almost like a deep rosé. Aromas of fresh raspberry, wild strawberry, ginger snap spice, aspirin, and white fl owers lead into a lively palate where raspberry meets a bright citrus edge.The result is an exceptionally fresh, vibrant, and easy-drinking light red, perfect as an aperitif or effortlessly paired with a duck roast on a relaxed weeknight dinner.
