Le Clos du Moulin comes from a 2-hectare plot of Mourvèdre planted on schist soils, located in the town of Banyuls, on the banks of the Baillaury River. This wine offers superb concentration of ripe fruit with lovely body on the palate, where maritime influences are evident in the subtle iodine notes that emerge on the finish. A wine with obvious aging potential that will be a pleasure to rediscover in about ten 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. As for the Collioures—that is, the dry wines produced in the same geographical area—they have, until now, provided 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 Parcé family, led by Dr. Parcé, a prominent local figure who passed away in 1998 and who played a leading role in the estate for many years.
