✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the sun-drenched hillsides of the Pays d'Oc, Les Tannes Cabernet Sauvignon Occitane is a vibrant testament to the region's winemaking heritage. The name 'Les Tannes' refers to the clay-limestone soils of the Languedoc, which have been cultivated since Roman times. This wine is crafted from sustainably grown Cabernet Sauvignon grapes that thrive under the Mediterranean sun, balanced by cooling sea breezes. To achieve its signature style, a portion of the blend is aged in French and American oak barrels to add structure and hints of vanilla, while the rest remains in stainless steel to preserve the bright, expressive blackcurrant and plum fruit characteristics.
🍾 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.
