Who makes it

At Mas de Nages in Caissargues, Michel and Tina Gassier lead Domaine Gassier. The domaine favours terroir expression and natural complexity over manipulation. Its white range includes a limestone terroir cuvée, while the vineyards are farmed through organic and regenerative agriculture.

Where it grows

Mas de Nages is in Caissargues, in the Costières de Nîmes appellation. Nostre Pais Blanc carries the appellation name. Embruns de Viognier puts Viognier on the label and is made entirely from that grape.

What they make

Nostre Pais Blanc 2021 is a Costières de Nîmes blend composed of 60% Grenache Blanc, 20% Clairette, 7.5% Viognier and 7.5% Roussanne. The cuvée comes from limestone rich terroirs, with minimal oak influence favoured in pursuit of minerality.

Embruns de Viognier 2024 is a 100% Viognier wine. Its nose brings intense apricot and tangerine with a hint of vanilla. The palate is voluptuous and fresh, with apricot, peach and citrus, and a long, lush finish with zingy freshness.
