Wines from Mas de Daumas Gassac: buy at the best price

The modern history of Mas Daumas Gassac began in the 1970s in Aniane, even though the probable founding of the original Daumas Gassac vineyard by St. Benoît d'Aniane is estimated to date back to the year 780. In 1970, Aimé and Véronique Guibert purchased the Mas, and after planting several new parcels, they produced their first vintage in 1978. Aimé Guibert, who may be considered one of the pioneers of great wines from the Languedoc, passed away recently, in 2016. He had succeeded in capturing the attention of the media and critics by producing atypical wines in the Languedoc, sourced from a little-known and remote valley.

The TOP winemakers of Languedoc

The History of Mas de Daumas Gassac

The story of Mas de Daumas Gassac has roots reaching back well before 1971, to the monks of Aniane Abbey in the eighth century. They were already cultivating vineyards there under Saint Benedict of Aniane, an adviser to Charlemagne. In 1970, Véronique Guibert, an ethnologist fascinated by Celtic myths, and Aimé Guibert, descended from a family of glovemakers from Millau, fell in love with an abandoned farmhouse beside the Gassac River. Guided by their friend, the geologist Henri Enjalbert, they discovered exceptional soil comparable to that of Burgundy’s grands crus.

In 1972, they planted 17,000 non-clonal Cabernet Sauvignon vines from massal selections at Bordeaux châteaux. An underground winery was built over the remains of a Gallo-Roman mill, taking advantage of cold-water springs for optimal winemaking conditions. The first vintage, in 1978, was overseen remotely by the legendary enologist Émile Peynaud, who saw it as the birth of a great Languedoc wine. Bottled as "table wine", this red made with 80% Cabernet Sauvignon was an immediate success, inaugurating the system of selling wine as futures that remains in place today.

The 1980s brought recognition: in 1982, Gault & Millau called it the "Château Lafite of the Languedoc", followed by praise from The Times. In the 1990s, the Moulin de Gassac wines were created to preserve the local terroir. In the 2000s, the Guibert siblings took up the mantle, particularly after Aimé’s death in 2016. Vertical tastings every ten years, including one featuring 30 vintages in 2014, attest to the wines’ aging potential. Today, exported to 61 countries, these wines carry on the story of pioneers who transformed the IGP Saint-Guilhem-le-Désert and helped make the Languedoc a land of great wines.

Terroirs and Vineyards of Mas de Daumas Gassac

In the heart of the Hérault, the terroir of Mas de Daumas Gassac is a hidden treasure: deep glacial scree soils, rich in mineral oxides (iron, copper and gold) and low in humus, accumulated during the ice ages and comparable to the soils of Burgundy’s Côte d’Or. Well drained, these soils force vine roots deep underground, fostering rare aromas and natural concentration. Surrounded by 1,000 hectares of wild Mediterranean scrubland—thyme, rosemary, lavender and strawberry trees—the 50-hectare vineyard is planted in small, one-hectare plots. Like clearings set within the forest, they preserve biodiversity and ecological balance.

A cool microclimate, equivalent to an altitude of 500 meters, brings an exceptional temperature range: nights remain as cool as 10°C even in summer, thanks to the influence of the Larzac and Arboussas ranges, delaying ripening and preserving acidity. The vines are grown without chemical fertilizers or pesticides—only compost made from Larzac sheep manure is used—through an intuitive approach to organic farming, with modest yields of 35 hl/ha. The estate is home to a unique collection of grape varieties: more than 40 non-clonal varieties selected through massal selection from historic estates such as Château Margaux and Domaine Huet. Cabernet Sauvignon dominates the reds at 80%, complemented by Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Merlot, Tannat, Petit Verdot, Syrah, Pinot Noir and rare varieties. The whites blend Viognier, Chardonnay, Petit Manseng and Chenin with Marsanne, Roussanne and other unusual varieties from the Rhône, the Loire and even Italy. Enhanced by Mediterranean scents, this diversity produces complex wines, with each wine purchase revealing the wild beauty of this stable ecosystem, protected by native birds and insects.

Winemaking at Mas de Daumas Gassac

Winemaking at Mas de Daumas Gassac closely follows traditional Bordeaux methods adapted to this unique terroir, carrying on Émile Peynaud’s legacy. Hand harvesting, staggered according to ripeness, ensures rigorous sorting in both the vineyard and the winery. In a vat room with 30 stainless steel tanks, built beneath the cold springs of a Gallo-Roman mill, slow alcoholic fermentation (8–10 days at a controlled temperature) extracts complex flavors without excess. A new pneumatic press, installed in 2016, optimizes juice extraction while avoiding bitterness.

For the reds, destemming is followed by three to four weeks of maceration with pump-overs, then malolactic fermentation in tanks. The wine is then aged for 12–15 months in 400 Burgundy-style barrels made from Allier and Nièvre oak (10–20% new), racked every three months and fined with egg whites before being bottled without filtration. The whites undergo skin maceration at 10°C for 5–7 days, followed by fermentation in stainless steel at 20–25°C, filtration through diatomaceous earth and a second filtration before bottling. Rosé Frizant, made by bleeding off juice from young Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, gets its bubbles from the pressurized Charmat method. With no sulfur added to the reds and minimal amounts added to the whites, these practices—along with the use of ATVs, horses and sheep to limit soil compaction—bring out freshness and elegance, ensuring each cuvée remains true to its terroir for wine buyers seeking both tradition and purity.

The Cuvées of Mas de Daumas Gassac

The cuvées of Mas de Daumas Gassac form an iconic range, with each wine expressing the diversity of the terroir and inviting exploration.

Mas de Daumas Gassac Red, the signature blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% from ten rare grape varieties (Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Merlot, Tannat, Petit Verdot, Syrah, Pinot Noir...), offers aromas of ripe dark fruit, spice, licorice and truffle. On the palate, it has delicious fruit, elegant tannins and an energetic finish. Young (at three years), it charms with its fruity freshness; after 15–20 years, it reveals tertiary notes of undergrowth and dried roses. IGP Saint-Guilhem-le-Désert.

Mas de Daumas Gassac White blends Viognier, Chardonnay, Petit Manseng and Chenin (90%) with eight secondary varieties, such as Marsanne and Fiano. Its rich aromatic range is captivating: peach and apricot, followed after three years by brioche and honey notes, then, after six years, delicate oxidative flavors reminiscent of an aged Sauternes. A creamy texture and lively acidity create a rare balance.

Mas de Daumas Gassac Rosé Frizant, a sparkling wine with fine bubbles made from Cabernet Sauvignon juice bled off from grapes grown on white clay, is delightfully indulgent. Fresh and fruity, it quenches your thirst with red-fruit aromas and an enchanting lightness—perfect for summer.

Cuvée Émile Peynaud, a tribute to the master enologist since 2001, is a pure Cabernet Sauvignon from vines planted in 1972: intense and structured, with a backbone of freshness and powerful tannins, it expresses the terroir in its purest form and is ideal for aging for 20 years or more.

Vin de Laurence, a naturally sweet wine inspired by Tokay and Vin de Constance, comes from a selection of vineyard plots. Opulent, with notes of candied fruit and spice, it embodies the winemaker’s "modest masterpiece" and makes for memorable sweet-and-savory pairings.

Finally, the Moulin de Gassac wines, launched in 1991 to save local vineyard plots through partnerships with growers, offer accessible, generous cuvées: supple Carignan-based reds (such as Figaro, voted best everyday wine in 1993), aromatic whites and dry rosés. All combine southern and Bordeaux grape varieties for a refined, everyday style without compromising on excellence.
