Tasting Notes
Bright gold straw color with yellow tints. Elegant flavors of tropical fruits, hazelnuts, lime-blossom and quince with a hint of vanilla and toasted bread. A rich and mellow wine perfect for a relaxing drink.
Cultivation
Vines grow on limestone soils with gravel.
Vinification
Vinification consists of skin contact for three hours. The grapes are then pressed in a pneumatic press. Racking occurs at 50°F with selected yeast. 100% of the must is put in French and American oak barrels where it will ferment for one month at 60°F.
Aging
The wine is then aged in barrels for 4 months.
Paul Mas wines are the result of a symbiotic relationship between an extraordinary region for producing wines, passion for the vineyard, respect for the grapes during vinification, and great blending and aging knowledge.
Paul Mas 1892 wine is a tribute to Raymond Mas, Jean-Claude’s grandfather. It commemorates his way of farming the vineyard, without using any chemical products, as well as his traditional way of making wine, respecting the fruit of the vineyard. His hard work and appreciation of the artful techniques enabled him to create his wines.
