Description
In a nutshell:
Elegant, silky and organic, Languedoc's rival to a top growth Claret.
The lowdown:
From this famous and groundbreaking completely organic estate in Languedoc-Roussillon comes their top red, the only 'grand cru' of the south. The blend is 80% Cabernet Sauvignon with rest being made up of rare and local varieties and it is true to say that this wine rivals, and in many cases outperforms, classified growth clarets. It has an intense bouquet of crushed blackberries and mulberries, burnt oak and smoky, leathery notes. Full bodied, powerful, with ripe tannins, yet elegant and soft in the mouth it has a silky finish that never seems to ends.
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 it's this dedication to quality across the board that has cemented their reputation.
When to drink:
Full in the mouth this is great with all kinds of lamb, especially a leg joint roasted with rosemary and garlic.
