Mas de Daumas Gassac,
Ready, but will keep,
A benchmark wine of the region. A choice blend of white grape varieties, to name a few – Viognier, Chardonnay, Petit Manseng & Chenin blanc. A lovely nose of Orange blossom and Lemongrass, fresh and attractive with orchard fruit lifted by an attractive mineralite & steeliness. Hedonistic on the palate, medium bodied, sensual and fleshy balanced by great acidity and a hint of spice. This wine is a hidden gem and a winner, one to be enjoyed on release and over the next 2-3 years.

Mas de Daumas Gassac,
Drink now,
The white wine of Mas de Daumas Gassac is a blend of mainly Chardonnay, Viognier and Petit Manseng; the wine is beautifully perfumed, a hymn of white flowers and peach kernels; then the palate, textured and rich, wonderfully expressive and seamlessly constructed.
The domaine of Mas de Daumas Gassac, famously described as' The First Growth of the Languedoc' by no less a luminary than Hugh Johnson , is located just to the north-west of Montpellier.The advice given in 1972 to the owner Aimé Guibert by geologist Henri Enjalbert and Bordeaux oenologist Emile Peynaud, was that both the soils and the climate here were perfect to reproduce the outstanding quality of the wines of the Médoc and in particular to the cultivation of the Cabernet Sauvignon grape, hitherto a virtual stranger this far East. History has proved them to be correct!

Famously described as the ‘First Growth of the Languedoc’, Mas De Daumas Gassac remains unique in the region.
The world-famous red is an intriguing blend of Cabernet Sauvignon along with a mix of indigenous and more unusual varieties from the south of France, such as Grenache, Cinsualt and Tempranillo. Mas De Daumas Gassac Blanc is a similarly fascinating blend of grape varieties, with Chardonnay and Viognier taking centre stage. Lauded across the wine world, not for nothing is this Domaine named the Lafite of the Languedoc.
