Rating: RVF 16/20
The Collita cuvée is initially a Rimage, whose very specific fermentation process (under marc) results in a Banyuls with a very different character and strong spicy accents. It displays an almost perfect balance and a remarkable combination of fruit and charm. One of the estate's latest additions, it is certainly not lacking in generosity. Definitely worth discovering!

C’est au départ un Rimage, qui par une cuvaison bien spécifique, donne à ce Banyuls un caractère différent. Plus abordable dans sa démarche, il reste dans l’esprit des grands Banyuls : équilibre presque parfait, d’un somptueux tandem fruit –charme. <br/>
Food and wine pairings
Enjoy it with sweet and sour or glazed pork, in a devil's sauce, or with a trio of chocolate, sour cherries, and vanilla...

About the estate:
Dr. Parcé had undoubtedly left his mark on the estate and the Banyuls appellation as a whole, which is based on magnificent schist terroirs. The Collioures wines, i.e. the dry wines produced in the same geographical area, have until now given a good idea of this terroir and its potential. The challenge is great for Jean-Michel Parcé, the son, to maintain this level of quality.

About the estate:
Le Mas Blanc has the largest vineyards in Banyuls. It has belonged to the same family since 1639, that of Dr. Parcé, a prominent local figure who passed away in 1998 and who was a driving force behind the estate for many years.
