 ATF - Code of Federal Regulations - TD ATF-388a
For decades, American wines made from this grape were labeled as ``Gamay Beaujolais.'' 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.
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.

The Gamay grape is the basis for Beaujolais.
Gamay is also inexpensive and tasty by itself or with snacks.
Gamay is also grown in the Touraine region of the Loire where it produces soft, well-balanced, gluggable wines for drinking young.

Gamay = Gamay Noir Notes: This is a grape variety that the French use to make their famous Beaujolais wine, a fruity, fresh-tasting red wine.
Don't confuse this wine with Gamay Beaujolais, which is made from a blend of Pinot Noir and Valdiguie grapes, or with Napa Gamay, another name for Valdiguie.
Gamay Beaujolais Notes: This name is given to American red wines made mostly from Pinot Noir and Valdiguie grapes.

Gamay juice also tends to be vinified in a hurray, not least because of market pressure for Beaujolais Nouveau, and if Gamay-based wines are cellared for more than two or three years it is usually by mistake.
As a wine Gamay tends to be paler and bluer than most other reds, with relatively high acidity and a simple but vivacious aroma of freshly picked red fruits, often overlaid by the less subtle smells associated with rapid, oxygen-free fermentation such as bananas, boiled sweets, and acetate.
In the Côte Chalonnaise and the Mâconnais between Beaujolais and the Côte d'Or Gamay was displaced as principal grape variety by Chardonnay during the 1980s, and the unexciting muddy quality of Gamays made here is expected to continue this trend.

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.
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.

 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.

 Book Review
After prohibition, Napa Valley winemakers began to work on new varietal grapes for premium wines and, at the same time developed new scientific techniques to improve wine quality.
James T. Lapsley has concentrated on the manner in which the premier California wines in Napa Valley evolved in a few short years compared to the 2,000 or more years wine has been known to civilized man. Napa wines are recognized as equal or superior to the great wines of France, or indeed anywhere.
One of the most interesting revelations is that originally almost all California wines were bulk wines made from virtually any kind of grape stock and the majority went into cheap fortified wines until the mid-1930s.

 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."

The 1990 vintage was spectacular in California, as it was just about everywhere in the world, and Napa Valley mainstay Beaulieu Vineyards decided to celebrate with a special bottling of a wine that harkened back to the California wine industry's earlier days.
The 1990 Special Burgundy has no Pinot Noir; instead, it's a mix of hearty, rustic, easy-growing grapes: 50 percent Petite Sirah, 40 percent Charbono, 5 percent Early Burgundy (whatever the heck that is), and 5 percent Napa Gamay.
It's labeled "Special Burgundy," but of course there's nothing Burgundian about it; the name instead recalls the time when big California wineries routinely tried to trade on the prestige of French wines, selling their wines as "Burgundy," "Chablis," and the like.

Gamay (pronounced "gam-may") is a widely planted grape, but its name is less familiar than you might expect.
American wine fanciers may know that, for many years, Napa Gamay (actually Valdiguie) and Gamay Beaujolais (probably an offshoot of Pinot Noir) were used for similar fruity California wines; those names are now being phased out by regulation.
That's because, in the French region where more than half the world's supply of Gamay is grown, the geographical name, not the grape, goes on the label.

 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.

The economics of farming grapes still argued for varieties that, if not inferior, were not likely to show the highest expression of Napa’s potential.
The Scheurebe, on the other hand, was a beautiful golden color and was, I thought, at 25 years old, an enchanting and still youthful wine.
