A graceful and mineral-driven white blend from Languedoc, with pale gold hues and vibrant stone-fruit charm. Apricot, pear, and white flowers meet a whisper of exotic freshness for effortless refreshment.
Pale gold in the glass, Moulin de Gassac Faune greets with a powerful, expressive nose of apricots, pears, and white flowers, bright yet refined. On the palate, it’s harmonious and balanced: layered stone-fruit notes of peach and apricot, underpinned by delicate floral accents and a chalky mineral core. The finish is lush, smooth yet fresh, lingering elegantly on exotic fruit.
Crafted from a precise blend of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Viognier, Moulin de Gassac Faune is sourced from ancient, mineral-rich clay‑limestone terroirs near the Thau Lagoon. After a gentle 10–12 hour skin maceration in refrigerated tanks, the wine is pressed and aged for 4–5 months in stainless steel, delivering a well-structured, terroir‑reflective white that strikes perfect freshness and finesse.
Serve Faune chilled (11–12 °C) alongside rich fish, veal, creamy seafood, or even foie gras for a match that balances richness with graceful freshness.

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.
