Named 'Aurore' after the beautiful Languedoc dawn, this vibrant rosé captures the essence of the Mediterranean lifestyle. Crafted by Jean-Claude Mas, it represents the 'Luxe Rural' philosophy—bringing affordable luxury and Southern French warmth to the glass. The grapes, sourced from clay-limestone soils in the Hérault Valley, are harvested during the cool night hours to preserve their bright, primary fruit characters. Using a blend of classic Southern French varieties, the wine undergoes a short skin contact followed by gentle pressing and temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel. The result is a delightfully fresh, salmon-pink rosé that sings of red berries, gentle spices, and the sun-drenched garrigue of the Pays d'Oc.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Established in 1892 with roots at Château de Conas, Domaines Paul Mas was revitalized in 2000 by Jean-Claude Mas, who championed the concept of 'Luxe Rural' to showcase the premium potential of the Languedoc region. Based in Pézenas, France, the family-owned estate spans multiple vineyards across the Hérault valley, practicing sustainable and organic viticulture certified by Terra Vitis. The winery is celebrated for its expressive, Mediterranean-influenced wines, seamlessly blending traditional Southern French varieties like Marsanne, Grenache, and Syrah with international grapes. From the vibrant, everyday Claude Val and Les Tannes ranges to refined single-estate cuvées, Paul Mas delivers accessible elegance that captures the warmth and diverse terroir of the Pays d'Oc.
