Tasting Notes
Tropical aromas of pineapple, pear, and yellow apple with secondary aromas of vanilla and toast. A rich and soft wine with flavors of apricot, honey and pineapple.
Cultivation
Clay and limestone soils of the Saint Hilaire Vineyard.
Vinification
Destemming of the grapes and cooling down of the must upon arrival at the winery. No skin contact, pneumatic pressuring, racking at 8-10°C for clarification of the must. Malolactic fermentation for 20% of the cuvée.
Aging
15% of the Chardonnay has finished its fermentation in new oak barrels and has been aged in oak barrels for 3 months. The other 85% are aged only in stainless steel.
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.
