Writer Hugh Johnson called the Daumas Gassac estate "the one Grand Cru of the Languedoc" and its serious, ageworthy wines fetch quite a price. This Réserve pink with its elegant berry fruit gives you a taste of the Grand Cru at an affordable price.

As you might expect from the Languedoc, this Grande Réserve is a blend of Grenache, Carignan, Cinsault and Syrah – fruity, dry, elegant and as pale as Provence’s finest! Soon after Aimé and Véronique Guibert bought their property in the Gassac Valley in 1970, their friend Henri Enjalbert, a professor of geography, told them they were sitting on a patch of land that had the potential to make magnificent Grand Cru style wines. Formed over thousands of years by slowly shifting glaciers, the poor, well drained soils were perfect for vines. History has shown this prognosis to be correct and Gassac is now known as the one true ‘Grand Cru’ of the south. Enjoy this delightfully fresh, red berry and citrus rosé with seafood or spiced noodles.
