One of those unicorn wines. Just a unique wine made of blend of varietals. Mostly Cab but some Pinot in there too. 2003 gives it a brickish color. Gorgeous wine with lively fruit and good acidity; lingering on the palate. “Daumas Gassac apparently has a geological formation unique in the Languedoc: chalky, friable, poor in humus, the bits of earth ranging in size from mere grains of sand to little stones, a soil similar in aspect, similar in constitution, to that of the Côte d’Or and the Italian Friuli.” Excerpt from Adventures of The Wine Route. — 3 months ago
Great Mas de Daumas Gassac with age. Claud has the 2014 on the main list and the 2013 on the longer list. Same price! Great call to get the 2013. Nice, fresh, rich. Had with an assortment of seafood starters (red shrimp, hamachi) and with the ham with sunchokes and chicken liver agnoloti. — 5 days ago

Better than my last bottle. More elegant and integrated. Med+ ruby red, though still faintly transparent.
The nose is pronounced with red raspberry, wild strawberry, charcoal, light notes of wood smoke, camphor, some notes if sandalwood and sweet violets.
The palate is med bodied, with fine grained med- tannin, medium acidity, with med+ palate flavors that are weightless and med+ in length. This is VERY good and best ever for me of this cuvee. — 10 days ago
