2020 Mas de Daumas Gassac Rouge St Guilhem-le-Désert Cité d'Aniane ...

Endowed with exceptionally rich and dark Cabernet fruit on the nose with just a touch of blackcurrant leaf, in an almost Margaux fashion, this is a thick set and muscular rendition of this iconic wine. The palate is equally fully formed with a tightly furled hit of complex spice and incense. The tannins are surprisingly refined given the breadth of the wine, but it is the acidity which resonates with me – it provides both grip and structure whilst working with the touch of alcohol on the finish.
