Moulin de Gassac Pinot Noir 2024

Pinot Noir with an Occitan accent - juicy, ripe, and silky, but still fresh and elegant. Less Burgundian formality, more Mediterranean charm. Of course, it's got to come from the right spots - somewhere with cooling breezes and limestone-rich soils to keep things balanced and avoid any overblown jamminess. This one gets it just right. No oak here, just pure, bright red cherry and raspberry fruit, a touch of spice, and a hint of earthiness. Silky tannins and a fresh, elegant finish make it as easy to drink as it is to like. Fresh, juicy, and effortlessly drinkable - Pinot Noir with a Languedoc twist.

Things like roast chicken with tarragon, grilled trout with lemon, or a classic coq au vin are great pairings for this fresh, silky Pinot. Nothing too rich - just bright flavours that let its juicy red fruit and soft tannins do the talking.

Mas de Daumas Gassac, founded in 1971 by the Guibert family, is often dubbed the 'First Growth of the Languedoc'. Nestled in the charming Gassac valley, they soon realised the potential to craft exceptional wines. Their flagship red and white cuvées are highly sought-after fine wines, yet they also produce a diverse range of more modest bottles. Each wine, whether grand or humble, adheres to the same meticulous standards, offering great value for money. And it's this dedication to quality across the board that has cemented their reputation.
