Reserve de Gassac Rosé

This is a bright, breezy rosé straight from the South of France, made for sunshine moments and zero overthinking. It’s packed with juicy red berry flavours, a zesty citrus lift and a clean, dry finish that keeps everything feeling fresh. Ideal for lazy lunches, pre-dinner glasses in the sun, or chucking in a cool bag for a beach picnic.

In the glass it’s crisp and fruit-led, with wild strawberries, redcurrants and a squeeze of pink grapefruit, plus a subtle herbal edge that stops it being too simple. It’s light, dry and nicely refreshing, with lively acidity and a little flick of minerality on the finish. Easy to drink, but with enough going on to keep you coming back for another sip.

Moulin de Gassac is the second label from the legendary Mas de Daumas Gassac estate — pioneers of quality winemaking in the Languedoc. The idea here is great wine without the price tag: sustainably made, full of regional character, and designed for everyday enjoyment. The Réserve range captures that Mediterranean spirit perfectly.

What our wine expert said

Mas de Daumas Gassac has proper wine-legend vibes - the sort of place whose top bottles can squabble with big Bordeaux and Burgundy names without breaking a sweat. But here’s the best bit: you don’t need to splash out on the flagship cuvées to have a cracking bottle in your glass. They make everyday wines that carry that same care and attention, just at friendlier prices.

This rosé is a lovely example of that. Think classic Provençal-style summer sipper - a juicy blend of Grenache, Syrah and Carignan that gives you fresh strawberry, cherry and a hit of redcurrant. It’s not trying to impress your wine lecturer, it’s just really easy to drink and delicious. At this price point it feels like a bit of a steal - perfect for a relaxed night in with friends.
