Description
In a nutshell:
Savour the character of the Languedoc - ripe black fruits, a whisper of oak, all wrapped in smooth elegance.
The lowdown:
Here we have blackberries and a hint of peppery spice on the nose - that's this lovely Languedoc red. The grapes come from the well-respected co-op in Faugeres, where the vines grow on rocky soils and catch plenty of sun (but cool down nicely at night). The winemakers keep things old-school with concrete tanks and just a bit of oak aging. The result? A smooth, easy-drinking red with vibrant fruit and a touch of warmth on the finish.
The Producer:
Mas Olivier embodies the spirit of Faugères. Its roots lie deep in the region's history, predating even the AOP classification. Beginning as a grower's collective way back in 1959, the co-op now shapes over half the appellation's output, earning a reputation for quality along the way. Their vineyards enjoy the best of both worlds: Mediterranean warmth tempered by elevation and ample rainfall. Their commitment to sustainable practices shines through - Mas Olivier delivers expressive wines balancing ripeness with character and an eye firmly on value.
When to drink:
Open this ripe red with a hearty casserole of beef or lamb, or alongside a well-seared, juicy steak.
Suitable for Vegans
