MAS AMIEL VINTAGE BLANC 2020

Style: Fortified

The entrepreneurial winemaker behind Mas Amiel is Olivier Decelle, who is also the owner of Château Jean Faure, where he produces Grand Cru Classé St Emilion. Mas Amiel is internationally known for its naturally sweet wines and oxidative wines. Decelle also produces some stunning dry wines that stem from a terroir of calcium shale, gneiss, and mica-schists soils, which allows these southern-accented wines to maintain a great freshness. He even pioneered the adaption of the appellation Maury to include dry wines, which has been important for young winemakers in the region who have gravitated towards this style. HALLES AUX VINS

The winemaking is carried out in vats at 18° followed by fortification with the addition of alcohol mid-fermentation. This technique helps to conserve the aromatic purity, as well as the balance and finesse of the Grenache gris. Once it has been fortified, Vintage Blanc is matured in vats, using reductive airtight winemaking techniques to preserve the fresh fruity aromas. MAS AMIEL
