Tasting notes

Deep ruby in colour, this wine opens with a complex, expressive nose that blends red berries with subtle hints of undergrowth and forest floor. On the palate, it’s both powerful and rounded, framed by warming spices and plush, structured tannins. The finish remains balanced and long, leaving a satisfying, gently spiced echo.

Crafted from a thoughtful selection of Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Grenache, with hints of Merlot or Carignan in some blends, this wine hails from old-vine plots planted on limestone and Rognacien marl slopes of Villeveyrac, just a touch of maritime-influenced Languedoc terroir. A 12-month maceration and ageing period gives the wine its signature structure and complexity.

Serve at 18–20 °C, ideally after decanting, and enjoy alongside rich, robust dishes, think duck, game, lamb stew, or spicy fare.

In 1971, Véronique and Aimé Guibert bought a “Mas” (farmhouse) and abandoned mill in the heart of a beautiful, wild valley through which flowed the Gassac river. After consulting Prof. Henri Enjalbert they planted vines in clearings in the middle of 4,000 hectares of forest - he was convinced they had the "terroir" to produce a Grand Cru of the future. The first vintage of their flagship red was produced in 1978 from roughly 80% Cabernet Sauvignon. By 1982, a respected French wine guide described Mas de Daumas Gassac as the “Château Lafite of the Languedoc”. The Rose Frizant was created in 1981, also from the younger Cabernet vines.

Today, the children of the Guibert family manage the estate, storing their harvests in an old cellar underneath the original mill. The five brothers have continued to fine tune the Mas de Daumas Gassac's Grand Vin and broaden the range with varietal wines and blends that offer great value for money under their Moulin de Gassac label.
