Fun Facts:  Daumas Gassac produced its first Rosé Frizant in 1990.  The domaine was established back in 1972 when 17,000 non-cloned Cabernet Sauvignon grafts were planted which were sourced from top Bordeaux properties.  The vineyard began gaining some attention and received consultation from Emile Peynaud, a consultant for Chateau Margaux & Haut-Brion.  Founded by husband & wife Aimé & Véronique, today their close-knit family of four sons manage the estate.
