As with the famous Mas de Daumas red, this top-drawer Languedoc white combines an eclectic range of 20 grape varieties. Viognier, Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc and Petit Manseng are the main stars, but the other 16 are a mind-boggling collection of deliciousness. Totally awe-inspiring, each of them vinified separately and the wine assembled early in the year after the vintage. Two themes run through this wine – the first is one of intense aromatics, with concentration and rich fruit on the palate. The second revolves around a lovely freshness, giving the wine great backbone and precision. With a little time, these come together. As a young wine, it delivers intense, exotic fruit, with superb minerality. With age, it takes on more biscuity tones.
