Description
In a nutshell:
An intense and expressive white and one of the benchmark wines of the Languedoc.
The lowdown:
Made by the iconic Gassac estate under the expert guidance of the Guibert family, this is an elegant, subtle, fresh and rounded blend of mainly Viognier, Chardonnay, Petit Manseng and Chenin Blanc together with small contributions from a whole host of other, rarely seen varieties. It's hand harvested and no oak is used in the winemaking which is aimed to retain the delicacy and freshness of the flavours and makes it a wine that's perfect for drinking young when the fresh minerality and complex fruitiness is at its prime. However it's also capable of ageing gracefully and if left for a few years it develops a whole new layer of honeyed notes.
The Producer:
Mas de Daumas Gassac, founded in 1971 by the Guibert family, is often dubbed the 'First Growth of the Languedoc'. Nestled in the charming Gassac valley, they soon realised the potential to craft exceptional wines. Their flagship red and white cuvées are highly sought-after fine wines, yet they also produce a diverse range of more modest bottles. Each wine, whether grand or humble, adheres to the same meticulous standards, offering great value for money. And its this dedication to quality across the board that has cemented their reputation.
When to drink:
Perfectly delicious on its own as an aperitif, or it makes a good partner to simply grilled fish, or seafood, especially oysters.
Suitable for Vegans
