Nestled in the wild splendour of the upper Gassac Valley, the vineyards are small parcels, that stand as clearings in the immense garrigue forest that dominates the landscape.
The extreme complexity of Mas de Daumas Gassac’s wines, are uniquely enriched by the 'garrigue' scents of the Mediterranean shrubs that surround the “vineyard-clearings”; bay, thyme, rosemary, lavender, arbutus, rock rose, fennel, wild mint, lentiscus, ...
Tasting Notes
A perfect everyday wine for amazing value!
Vinous, complex aromas, with hints of red berries (cherry, blackberry, strawberry) and spice.
Opens soft and fruity with gentle tannins. Dark cherries, cassis, dry earth and baking spices on the nose follow through to a medium body with creamy tannins and texture. Well-balanced with a creamy core of berries and a delicious finish.
Delicate and sophisticated.
Long and smooth; a touch rustic reflecting its “terroir”.
