Tasting Notes
Limpid yellow with consistent bubbles. The nose has intense and refined aromas of honey and flowers with layered citrus. On the palate it is a very good balance of fruit and acidity with a lengthy finish. It is a great wine as an aperitif or accompaniment with a meal.
Cultivation
Vines are planted on clay and limestone soils at an elevation of 820 to 920 feet above sea level.
Vinification
Entire bunches are pressed with the pneumatic press. Racking at low temperature (8°C). Fermentation under controlled temperature (18°C). Traditional method: first fermentation in vats then bottle fermentation follows (second fermentation).
Aging
Bottles are stored for at least 15 months on racks in air-conditioned cellars. Then, disgorging is done 3 months before launching with liqueur d’expédition addition and final cork closure.
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.
