✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the organic vineyards of Domaines Paul Mas in the Hérault valley of Languedoc, the Mas Tannes Reserve Rouge represents Jean-Claude Mas's dedication to 'Luxe Rural'—bringing affordable luxury and sustainable viticulture to the forefront. This cuvée is crafted from organically grown grapes, typically featuring a classic Mediterranean blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Carignan. The vines thrive on gravelly, clay-limestone terraces under the warm Mediterranean sun, cooled by gentle sea breezes. In the cellar, traditional vinification is paired with partial aging in French and American oak barrels to round out the tannins, resulting in a wine that bursts with ripe blackberries, wild herbs, and subtle sweet spices, reflecting the rustic yet refined soul of the Languedoc.
🍾 About the Producer
Rooted in a viticultural heritage dating back to 1892, Domaines Paul Mas in its modern form was established in 2000 by visionary winemaker Jean-Claude Mas near Pézenas in the Languedoc region of southern France. Driven by the philosophy of 'Luxe Rural'—creating accessible, everyday luxury wines—the estate seamlessly marries centuries-old French tradition with dynamic, New World-inspired winemaking techniques. Across an expansive collection of distinct terroirs spanning the Languedoc, Roussillon, and Mediterranean coastline, the domaine practices meticulous and sustainable viticulture. Domaines Paul Mas is widely celebrated for its expressive single-varietal bottlings, such as Marsanne and Syrah under the Les Tannes label, charming regional blends like Claude Val, and refined appellation wines from Pézenas.
