Mas de la Dame - La Stèle Rouge 2005

Mas de la Dame - La Stèle Rouge 2005

Rating: Gault Millau 16/20, RVF 14/20
La Stèle Rouge is made from old-vine Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. This wine offers a lovely spicy and mineral-driven nose with notes of ripe fruit, intense licorice, and cocoa, and will continue to improve for a good ten years. A must-try!

Rated estate (2023 guide): 2 stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous vintage)

About the estate:

Nestled in a magnificent landscape on the southern slopes of the Alpilles, this 300-hectare family estate—comprising 52 hectares of vineyards and 28 hectares of olive groves—boasts well-drained soils that are ideal for viticulture. Now run by two sisters, Caroline Missoffe and Anne Poniatowski—the former being the current and highly dynamic president of the appellation—the estate’s wines stand out as one of the finest expressions of Les Baux-de-Provence. Rich and full-bodied, they combine depth and lightness with great elegance.
