1991 Mas de Daumas Gassac Rouge

"A Languedoc original, the estate vineyards of Mas de Daumas Gassac were planted in 1972, with the first wine produced from the 1978 vintage. The family-run domaine is an anomaly within the region, relying on 70% or more Cabernet Sauvignon in its red wine, while the white is predominantly Petit Manseng, Viognier, Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc. Both of the flagships include a range of other varieties in their blends, including Albariño, Fiano, Grechetto and Sercial (in the white) and Barbera, Nebbiolo, Plavac Mali and Saperavi (in the red). The reds in particular are capable of aging for two decades or more. "  Joe Czerwinski, The Wine Advocate
