Domaine du Mas Blanc - Collioure Clos du Moulin 2012

Domaine du Mas Blanc - Collioure Clos du Moulin 2012

Clos du Moulin comes from a 2-hectare plot of Mourvèdre on schist soils, located in the commune of Banyuls, on the banks of the river "La Baillaury." This wine offers superb concentration of ripe fruit with beautiful volume on the palate, where maritime influences are present with subtle iodine notes on the finish. A wine with obvious potential that will be a pleasure to rediscover in ten years' time...

2-star rating (Successful production)

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.

Rated estate (2011 guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking and, as such, all the estates listed in it, even those without stars, represent, in our opinion, the excellence of French production.)

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.
