Mas de Daumas Gassac, Blanc 2020
Mas de Daumas Gassac is the Languedoc's great anomaly: a white wine that commands the attention and cellar time of a grand cru, in a region better known for sun-drenched reds. The blanc is a wild blend anchored in Viognier, with a cast of varieties that reads like a vinous curiosity cabinet, all grown on the estate's remarkable glacial flour soils north of Montpellier. "Main grapes: Viognier, Chardonnay and Petit Menseng with a small amount of Chenin Blanc. A unique wine with lots going on. Medium-bodied, layers of tropical fruits and honey. Long finish. Pair with French Onion Soup." Our note
Pouilly-Fuissé Premier Cru Sur La Roche, Domaine Saumaize-Michelin 2023
Included amongst Charles Curtis of Decanter's 'top Burgundy 2023 wines'. Saumaize-Michelin is yet another stand out producer. The wines are utterly gorgeous. There's richness and volume, the faint hint of something exotic, but then there's also incredible tension, drive and energy. Unsurprisingly we're not the only one enchanted by this small domaine in the Mâconnais... Neal Martin, Allen Meadows and William Kelley are all worshipping at the altar of Saumaize-Michelin, and it's time we all joined them.
