Cote Mas Syrah Grenache is a vibrant reflection of the warm, sun-drenched Mediterranean climate of the Pays d'Oc in Southern France. Crafted by Jean-Claude Mas as an invitation to experience the relaxed 'Luxe Rural' lifestyle, this red blend marries the structured, peppery qualities of Syrah with the juicy, red-berry warmth of Grenache. Grown on clay-limestone soils that benefit from cooling sea breezes, the grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness and vinified primarily in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve their bright, primary fruit characteristics. This approach yields an approachable, medium-bodied wine defined by notes of ripe blackberries, wild herbs (garrigue), and a touch of sweet spice, capturing the rustic charm and modern elegance of the Languedoc.
🍾 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.
