Facing due south on steep terraces, the Syrah plots that make up 90% of this wine are trained on stakes, reminiscent of the vineyards of Côte Rôtie. With its incredibly low yields of 15 hectoliters per hectare, it reigns supreme in its kingdom and makes no secret of it. Its beautiful ripeness and aromas promise a delight where the terroir takes center stage. With only 3,000 bottles produced, this wine is best enjoyed over the next six to eight years!

About the estate:
Dr. Parcé had undeniably left his mark on the estate and the Banyuls appellation as a whole, rooted in its magnificent schist terroirs. The Collioures, that is, the dry wines produced in the same geographical area, had until now given a good indication of this terroir and its potential. The challenge is great for Jean-Michel Parcé, the son, to maintain this high standard of quality.

Rated estate (2011 guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)
About the estate:
Le Mas Blanc boasts the largest vineyards in Banyuls. It has been owned by the same family since 1639—the family of Dr. Parcé, a prominent local figure who passed away in 1998 and who was the driving force behind the estate for many years.
