About the estate:

Former restaurant owners in Alsace, Pierre and Mireille Mann gave in to an irresistible urge to become winemakers, settling in 2005 in the coastal area of the Fitou appellation. After three years at a cooperative winery—the time it took to convert the vineyard to organic farming—they began producing Mas des Caprices in 2009. The vineyard is located on the Leucate plateau, at the edge of cliffs overlooking the sea, in a magnificent and unspoiled setting. Striking a harmonious balance between easy-drinking wines and more ambitious ones, the wines showcase local grape varieties (Carignan and Grenache Gris), combining ripeness with fresh fruit. This is a particularly cohesive range, where a free-spirited character is combined with precise flavors.
