By this time, UCD had determined that the grape known as ``Napa Gamay'' was not the Gamay grape of France.
The ``Gamay noir a jus blanc'' (otherwise known as the ``Gamay'') is the predominant grape variety used in the production of Beaujolais wine.
In the late 1960's, researchers at UCD decided that the grape known as ``Napa Gamay'' was the true Gamay grape, and that the ``Gamay Beaujolais'' vine was actually a clone of Pinot noir.

 DiWineTaste - Gamay
Indeed wines produced with Gamay are not that longeval when compared to the other renowned grapes: in fact the low content in tannins does not allow long aging times in bottle.
According to the witnesses of authors of the past, Gamay is a grape originating from the homonymous village in Bourgogne, not far from Chassagne and Puligny.
The name Gamay was frequently used for referring to other grape varieties which in past have been confused with the real Gamay, many of them were considered as Gamay only because of their high coloring capacity both because of the skin and the pulp.

 Teletimes December 1993 -- The Wine Enthusiast
Gamay is the grape variety used exclusively in Beaujolais, it was once one of the most popular red wines in the world, long before Cabernet became synonymous to consumers with red wine.
Gamay wines should typically exude fresh cherry and strawberry flavors, and soft floral aromas.
The ideal in Gamay wines is to be homogeneous and pure, like the coherent light from a ruby laser, rather than opalescence expected from Cabernet wines.

 BRICK HOUSE VINEYARDS
It is noted that the vines of the village of Gamay seem less subject to disease than those traditional grapes of the Cote; Pinot noir and Chardonnay.
But with the reorganization of French vineyards in the latter half of the 19th century, Gamay was once again banned from the great sites of Burgundy...this time by the new aristocracy, including some of the same families whose Gamay vineyards had supplied the wherewithal to purchase the world's most pricey sites planted to Pinot noir.
A single Gamay vine is seen to produce more fruit than three of its more delicate cousins...and, best of all, a wine writer of no less repute than Matt Kramer would concede a thousand years later that the wine from these vines of Gamay "was not half bad."

Until the 1970s, the red vinifera grape variety traditionally identified as Gamay Beaujolais was thought by California vineyardists to be the true grape of France's Beaujolais region.
Another grape, the Napa Gamay, which is also not truly from Beaujolais, took on the standing of the true Beaujolais grape when that which we call Gamay Beaujolais turned out to be Pinot Noir.
The wines now made from Napa Gamay may also be called Gamay Beaujolais even though it, like the Gamay Beaujolais, is not from Beaujolais.

"Gamay is a good 'compromise' wine if everyone at the table has ordered something different and you're too cheap to order two or three different wines."
It produced much higher yields of wine that "when new flatter strangers with its sweetness." The Dukes of Burgundy banished the Gamay, so it fled south and found a new life.
Hugh Johnson tells us the grape appeared suddenly around the Burgundian village of Gamay in the 1360s.

If Gamay is planted in the right spot, and farmed and vinified properly, it can produce wine that brings a smile to every heart, a lightness to each step, and jolly-ness to the table where it's poured.

 GAMAY
Before its true identity was revealed another grape - the Napa gamay - that had been cultivated in California for some time, was identified as the true Gamay.
It was positively identified as the Pinot noir in the mid-1960s, but by this time several Californian wineries were selling their own brand of Gamay Beaujolais.
As Leon Adams notes in "The Wines of America", this erroneous American synonym arose out of genuine confusion when Paul Masson brought back to his winery several Burgundian grapes, one of which he honestly believed to be the Gamay of Beaujolais.
