From vineyard to bottle
The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.
What a fantastic blend this Paul Mas Vignes de Nicole Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot is! What makes this Paul Mas red wine so special is that the grapes come from very old vines in select vineyards. Because these vines are "vine-aged," the yield is low, but the quality is very high. These select vineyards are planted in the perfect location, allowing all the factors needed for the grapes to mature smoothly. When the grapes are perfectly ripe, the winemaker will signal the start of the manual harvest. This harvest begins mid-night. This ensures the grapes are still dormant, minimizing damage during transport to the winery.
Vinification takes place separately for both grape varieties, after which the final blend is created. The wine will mature for seven months in the Paul Mas cellars in French oak barrels. Some of these oak barrels are new, giving this delicious red wine some extra oomph. After bottling, the wine continues to mature in the bottle for several months before being released by the winemaker. The winemakers at Paul Mas share the same goal of producing only the finest wines. This is only possible through constant innovation and a commitment to nature. This beautiful winery excels at this, and you can taste the difference in every Paul Mas wine.
This grape blend gives this Paul Mas Vignes de Nicole Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot a truly special character! It begins with its regal ruby-red color. Elegance, refinement, and softness. The aroma reveals an elegant and complex bouquet with aromas of plums, red berries, and spices. Delicious, but the taste of this Paul Mas Vignes de Nicole Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot is also round and powerful. Beautiful notes of licorice, vanilla, wood, black fruit, and herbs complete the whole. The full and rich finish leaves you completely swooning.
