2013 Mas de Daumas Gassac, Rouge, St Guilhem-le-Désert Cité d'Aniane, Languedoc

Description

Super ripe, dense fruit, plum, smoke, scorched earth, lavender.  There is a hot, dark centre to this wine, but lots of perfume and freshness surrounding it on the nose. Lovely soft texture on the palate, absolutely seamless, with no edges at all, but balanced by fresh, integrated acidity. Reams of ripe red and black fruits on the palate with plum leading cassis in a dance all the way to the fine, delicate finish.

Critics reviews

Andrew Jefford 88/100
This was a relatively cool year for the Languedoc, though it was unmarred by the copious rain which fell in Bordeaux and other French vineyard regions. That suited many of the warmest Languedoc sites – but not necessarily the cooler, slightly higher-altitude Gassac valley. The wine has satisfactory alcohol levels, but it has emerged in a lighter style than usual, with super-gentle tannins and a shaded cast to the fruit making it suitable for early drinking. Its dappled freshness endows it with fine drinking qualities just now. Drink 2018-2025Andrew Jefford, Decanter (April 2018)
