Description
The Grand Cru of the Midi. In 1971, Professor Henri Enjalbert of Bordeaux III University, a geographer specialized in winegrowing geology, visited Mas de Daumas Gassac and determined, after walking in the valley for several hours, that the soil consisted of glacial sandstone comparable to the best terroirs of the Côtes d’Or in Burgundy. Most of the vineyard is an uncloned form of cabernet sauvignon, as it grew in the Médoc before 1914; the rest is a museum of rare and uncloned vines from across the world, from Portugal to Switzerland. | Mostly Cabernet Sauvignon however this blend sees everything from Brancellao to Chkhaveri. Wild. Great vintage, too.
Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon, Field Blend.
Region: Haute Vallée du Gassac, Languedoc, FR.

SPÖN - a discovery-led hybrid bottle-shop/Wine bar experience. Browse the shelves, grab a bottle and drink it at the bar — or pull up a stool and explore a daily rotating board of over 15+ distinct wines being poured by the glass. SPÖN is built around drinking what interests you.
Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
