The 2014 Mas de Daumas Gassac Blanc is a blend of 24% Viognier, 24% Petit Manseng, 23% Chardonnay, 13% Chenin Blanc and 16% of rare grape varieties. The wine underwent skin maceration for 5 to 7 days followed by fermentation in stainless-steel tanks. As the wine aged, the youthful fruitiness evolved, giving way to new flavours reminiscent of sherry or a Sauternes, showcasing a subtle oxidative character with exceptional finesse.

The 2014 Blanc has a similar flavor profile to the 2018, with a lot of white orchard fruit and mint, floral notes, but with the extra bit of texture and generosity that develops in bottle over time. Melon, white peach, passion fruit and exotic floral notes all grace the 2014, a wine that seems to just be entering an early plateau of maturity. — Antonio Galloni, 1st October 2020

I found the 2014 IGP Saint Guilhem le Desert Blanc hard to read. Made from 24% Viognier, 23% Chardonnay, 24% Petit Manseng and the rest Chenin Blanc and other varieties, it has a ripe, tropical and honeyed bouquet to go with a nicely concentrated, ripe, textured style on the palate. Possessing moderate acidity, sweet fruit (there’s certainly some residual sugar) and a good finish, it’s already enjoyable, yet I suspect it will round into form with another year in bottle. It should age on its concentration. A touch more acidity would help here. — Jeb Dunnuck, 28th April 2016
