Paul Mas Syrah-Grenache Noir

A southern French everyday red wine that delivers more than its price suggests: dark fruit, a smooth texture and the typical peppery notes of the south.

Paul Mas is one of the most renowned estates in the Languedoc. Jean-Claude Mas has transformed the family winery into one of the region's largest producers of quality wines – with vineyards located between Montpellier and Béziers, on soils of limestone and red schist, which are particularly well-suited to Syrah and Grenache.

In the glass, it displays a dark violet-red color. The nose offers aromas of blackberry and blackcurrant, along with a hint of mocha and Mediterranean spice. On the palate, it is soft and juicy, with ripe dark fruit and a finish characterized by the typical peppery notes of Syrah. The tannins are polished, the acidity subtle – an uncomplicated, well-rounded wine without any harshness.
