About this winery

The story begins at Château Paul Mas in Conas hamlet, in the splendid town of Pézenas, the city of famous playwright Molière. The estates then expanded to Montagnac, with Nicole vineyard and Mas des Tannes. Jean-Claude Mas’s great-grandfather, Auguste Mas, bought the first family vineyard in 1892, when he aquired 9 ha (22 acres) of vines in the Mas de Bicq, near the village of St Pons de Mauschiens. In 1934, Raymond Mas brings the family vineyard to a surface of 15 ha in Domaine Montredon...

Production notes

Côté Mas is an invitation to journey into the heart of the Coteaux du Languedoc Crus and Languedoc’s main appellations. Those wines represent the diversity of terroirs within the same appellation and the essence of each traditional appellation in the Languedoc. They are a fusion between the tradition of winemaking and the new approach to wine, embodied by Jean-Claude Mas and his partners-vintners. Jean Claude skillfully assembled the best grape varieties from Languedoc, to highlight the diversity and expression of the fruits of this Mediterranean region. Each grape variety is vinified separately. Destemming, short maceration at controlled temperatures for the Grenache Noir. Maceration for 6 to 8 days for the Syrah. Pneumatic pressing. We only use the free-run juice and the first press, in order to obtain the maximum expression of fruit and aromas while respecting a natural process to obtain a wine that is structured and supple at the same time. Assembly takes place in January. Ageing: in concrete vats for 4 months before being bottled. Terroir: clay and limestone Vineyard: 10-35 years old Pruning: Guyot Simple Density of plantation: 4400 plants/hectare Harvest: mechanical Average yield: 65hl/ha Altitude: 60-150 meters Climate: Mediterranean
