Mas de Daumas has built a super strong reputation in the south of France for making one of the absolute best examples of Rosé each vintage. But in my mind, that’s both a blessing and a curse because the rest of their wines deserve the same kind of attention, though they fly a bit under the radar because they’re not pretty in pink.
The Guilhem Rouge is comprised of the traditional varietals in the region: a racy mix of Syrah, Grenache and Carignan. It’s one of those wines that hits way above its weight class and shines next to food. James Suckling found this little Southern French red already, giving it a 91-point score- a fabulous and deserving score for a wine that’s priced to be scooped up by the case.

91 Points, James Suckling
A fruity nose of cassis, cherries, crushed strawberries, dried herbs and spice-box. Some olive and salty undertones. Medium body with fine tannins and fresh acidity. Bright and juicy with a supple, savory finish. Syrah, grenache and carignan. Drink or hold.

95 Points (Gold Medal), 2022 Decanter Wine Awards
The expert reviews on this incredible new release from Herve Fabre are insane. 90 points and a ‘Best Buy’ designate from Wine Enthusiast, 90 more from Suckling. Ditto from Vinous who called this “young, firm, with well-worked tannins and good structure”. But in a crowded see of nearly 20,000 wines at the Decanter Wine Awards in 2022 – this stole the show. The only 95-point, Gold medal Cabernet that you can get for under $20/bottle, its second straight year in the most rarified air.
95 Points, Parker’s Wine Advocate – 94 Points,Wine Spectator
Robert Parker, Jr. gave it 95 points and called it “one of the finest Warre’s I’ve ever tasted” and “a profound example of Warre vintage port.” Additionally, “Tasters should take note of the wealth of peppery, licorice-scented and flavored raspberry and blackcurrant fruit. Look for it to be ready to drink in 10-12 years, and keep for 30+.”
95 Points, Decanter
The Gaja family first started releasing this great Brunello in 2015 and doesn’t make it in every vintage, only the ones they deem excellent. It’s a classic Brunello with a light garnett hue. The nose boasts red fruits and Mediterranean herbs with a hint of rosemary and thyme. On the attack, there are Bing cherry notes along with plum and cocoa notes at the back of the palate. It’s a well-balanced wine, but it is still such a baby at the moment. It will reward those with patience but should have another 20-30 years of agebility easily.
#24 Wine of the Year (2022), Wine Spectator
92 Points, Wine Spectator – 91 Points, James Suckling
“This supple red shows a core of cherry and plum fruit allied to olive, juniper and tobacco notes. Delivers well-integrated tannins and acidic structure, lingering nicely on the finish.”
