Saturday, February 18th
4:30 - 7:00

For this week's tasting we are going to offer a preview of many of the wines that we will be showcasing at our next collaborative Wine Dinner with Nana's Restaurant.  Considered by many to be the "Grand Cru of the Languedoc", Mas de Daumas Gassac makes perhaps the highest quality wines found in France's Mediterranean coast.  Since the 1970s the Guibert family has farmed this portion of the Gassac Valley with great pride, respect and skill.  They were crucial in showing that high quality wines could be made in an area better known for making vast quantities of plonk.  They were stewards of the land, and brought the concepts of organic and bio-dynamic agriculture to many farmers in the Languedoc.  And most of all, they grew amazing fruit and crafted delicious, elegant wines.  We will be tasting four of the six wines to be featured at the Nana's Dinner, (we can't give everything away in advance), as well as one additional wine from their Moulin de Gassac range.  This is a great opportunity to try the wines without distraction, and then come to the dinner on February 28th and see what Chef Scott Howell and staff come up with to pair with the wines.
