IGP St-Guilhem-le-D., Mas de Daumas Gassac rouge - 2015

Provenance: Languedoc-Roussillon
Appellation: IGP St-Guilhem-le-Désert
Domain: Mas de Daumas Gassac
Grape variety(ies): 80% de Cabernet Sauvignon associés à une collection de 10 cépages différents.
Alcohol degree: 13.5%

Harvesting of the reds began on Wednesday 10 September with the 'collection' plot of rare grape varieties, followed by Merlot, Malbec, Syrah, Tannat, Pinot, Dolcetto and Cabernet Franc. The tour ended on Sunday 14 September, in glorious sunshine, with the PeyraFioc Cabernet Sauvignon (the oldest vine, planted in 1972). Initial tastings revealed roasted aromas (cocoa, coffee) associated with the wood, as well as black fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant) and moderate alcohol levels (12.8-13°). This is a vintage of great balance, with good acidity and elegant, mouth-watering flavours. Without doubt, a future classic! Bettane & Desseauve : 16.5/20 ; Guide Vert RVF : 16.5/20 ; Jancis Robinson : 17.5+/20 ; Wine Advocate : 93/100.

Viticulture

Mas de Daumas Gassac is located in the middle of the Arboussas massif, on deep, perfectly drained soil that is poor in humus and plant matter and rich in mineral oxides. This terroir was formed during the accumulation of glacial gravel by the wind during the Riss, Mindel and Guntz glaciations.
