Mas de Daumas Gassac 2012 is a full-bodied, blended red wine from the Languedoc region of south-west France. Referred to as the `Grand Cru of the Midi` by Hugh Johnson, Mas de Daumas Gassac is a celebrated Languedoc-Roussillon winery known for its innovative approach to winemaking and its high-quality wines. Founded by Aimé Guibert in the 1970s, the estate was among the first in the region to use non-traditional grape varieties, in particular Cabernet Sauvignon for reds, in its blends. Producer note on the 2012 vintage (representing the 40th anniversary of the estate). "Finesse, power, length and mouthwateringly rounded, when tasted today as it matures, this 2012 is thoroughly enjoyable and seductive."

The inviting 2012 Rouge opens with violets, vanilla, spice box, cassis tomato leaf and pencil shavings. Wrapped in ripe tannins that provide a good grip, the structured 2012 is balanced by bright acidity and sports ample flavor concentration. Medium-bodied at most, it finishes distinctively refined and sits at the beginning of its extended drinking window. — Nicolas Greinacher, 24th July 2024

75.6% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5.5% Merlot, 4.4% Tannat, 3.9% Cabernet Franc, 1.8% Malbec, 1.8% Pinot Noir, 7% rare varieties. This has become more meaty alongside the black fruit but also has become fragrant with a herbal garrigue scent. Still firm but more chalky than dense. Very dark-flavoured on the finish and rather closed for now. (JH) — Julia Harding, 4th December 2017
