Moulin de Gassac Vin de Pays de l’Herault Guilhem Blanc 2014 750 ML

Quite a complex, action packed fruit salad nose – cinnamon dusted, everything from candied limes to yellow melon to mandarin to apricot, a whiff of smoke and toasted pine nuts. Palate shows good tension, the richness and oiliness balanced by zest, salt and stones around a core of white stone fruit and citrus and dried papaya.

Producer Information
In the early 1990s, the Guibert family set themselves a new challenge: the creation of a new range of approachable wines in the same Gassac philosophy, leading to the discovery of the exceptional Villeveyrac “amphitheatre” site. This led to a long and fruitful partnership between Mas de Daumas Gassac and the winegrowers from this terroir. The first wines were produced in 1991, the result of a plot-by-plot selection from thirty local winegrowers. The Moulin de Gassac range was born in 1991, with the Mas de Daumas Gassac’s hallmark and Guibert’ signature. For more than 30 years this authentic approach, with daily involvement, has inspired us in an ongoing quest to obtain the best possible quality from these vineyards. Now covering an area of 250 hectares, all the plots are subject to a rigorous set of specifications: terroir based plots selection, low yields, specific tanks for plots vinifications, 100% of the vineyard run with insect sexual confusion (a bio approach to stop all other treatments),… Two agronomists engineers from Mas de Daumas Gassac – in charge of the SAS Moulin de Gassac wines – are present on site throughout the year. They are the guarantee of the respect of the Gassac philosophy and savoir-faire. The grapes are rigorously selected by our team are therefore harvested at perfect maturity, the winemaking and ageing is managed by us.
