Owned by the DAUMAS family, it was in the heart of a splendid, unspoilt valley through which runs the GASSAC river.Strangers to the world of the vine, but entranced with \u2018mother earth\u2019 Aim\u00e9 and V\u00e9ronique debated what to grow : maize, olives, vines \u2026? But they were fortunate in their fellow Aveyron friend, Professor Henri Enjalbert, a geologist specialising in the relationship between land and grapes and author of several works including a book on the \u2018origin of quality\u2019.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em><strong>In 1971 :<\/strong>Professor Enjalbert first visited Daumas Gassac. After only a day walking round the Domaine he raved about the ice age scree covered land likening it to the best soil in Burgundy\u2019s C\u00f4tes d\u2019Or. \u2018It\u2019s quite possible to make a Grand Cru here\u2019 he told them. \u2018But it would probably take 200 years for it to be recognized and accepted as such!!!\u2019. Enjalbert\u2019s words \u2018Grand cru\u2019 acted as though someone had thrown down a gauntlet for ethnologist and Irish specialist, V\u00e9ronique, and Aim\u00e9, a tanner and glove maker. They were quick to pick it up. As Henri Enjalbert explained, the potential for an outstanding red wine was enhanced by underground cold water springs and the influence of the surrounding mountain which created a true micro-climate with a touch of humidity reminiscent of the Medoc.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em><strong>In 1972 :<\/strong> Planting of un-cloned Cabernet Sauvignon vines.
