Reserve de Gassac, Selection Guibert Rosé, Pays d’Herault, France

Mas de Daumas Gassac is an iconic producer in the south of France, famous across the world. Back in the 1970s the Guibert family fell in love with an old property in a beautiful Languedoc valley and, encouraged by a professor from Bordeaux University, had the courage and vision to develop vineyards and to focus on quality above all in their wines. They were pioneers in a region which at that time was pretty much just known for high volume and low cost.

This wine is from the Guibert family's "diffusion" range, a lower cost set of wines produced in the same spirit as the domaine wines, farming small hillside vineyards in harmony with nature, but using grapes grown on vineyards across the region.

This rosé is a stunning example of Southern French pinks. Made using brief skin contact resulting in a very pale Provence-esque pink, and with minimal intervention in the winery. This wine is perfect for long summer days spent on a picnic blanket or as an aperitif on days when you are longing for sunshine!
