Paul Mas, Reserve Brut Rose Cremant de Limoux NV

Vinous Reverie Notes
Paul Mas Reserve is located between Pézenas and Montpellier, 10 km from the Mediterranean. The vineyards cover 162 hectares across the Languedoc, Languedoc Pézenas, Grés de Montpellier and Pays d’Oc appellations. These sites also provide the fruit for the Château Paul Mas line of wines. The vines are grown in an exceptional setting, surrounded by olive trees, pine forests, oak trees, and orchards–they enjoy exposure from the north, south, and west, and are cooled by the Mistral and Tramontane winds. The grapes are heavily influenced by the gravelly clay and limestone soils on the hillsides of the Herault valley, and the chalky, fossil-rich soils on the hills of the Thau marshes. The vines are grown using sustainable viticulture practices, with portions of the vineyards being organic or certified Terra Vitis. Tasting Notes: A lovely pink color with raspberry hues with delicate and consistent bubbles. The nose has aromas of fresh cut flowers, honeysuckle, peach, and apricot. As you take a sip, this wine hits the tongue with lively grapefruit and blood orange notes amidst a wonderful fizz.
