Rated estate (2026 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing good-quality wines; you won't be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
Former restaurateurs in Alsace, Pierre and Mireille Mann gave in to their irrepressible desire to become winemakers, settling in 2005 in the maritime sector of the Fitou appellation. After three years in a cooperative cellar, during which time they converted the vineyard to organic farming, they began production at Mas des Caprices in 2009. The vineyard is located on the Leucate plateau, on the edge of cliffs overlooking the sea, in a magnificent and unspoiled environment. Harmoniously blending easy-drinking wines with more ambitious cuvées, the wines give pride of place to local grape varieties (Carignan and Grenache Gris), combining maturity and freshness of fruit. This is a particularly consistent range, where freedom of expression is combined with precision of flavor.
