Mas Bécha - Côtes du Roussillon Hipgnosis 419 blanc 2022
94/100
Jeb Dunnuck
"Burgundian-style Roussillon
"A more lemony, mineral style, with hints of mint herbs and white flowers. This is another beautifully balanced, layered, medium-bodied white wine from Perez with a lot to offer. It will evolve for at least 7 or 8 years, but I like it today, too." (Jeb dunnuck 2024)

Domaine noté (guide 2020) Sélectionné (An estate or house that has won us over with one or more wines from its production, without us being able to give a general opinion on the style of the entire range)
About the domain :
This estate, original in its marketing approach as much as in its wine style, produces cuvées with amusing labels that often linger in the memory. The Perez family travels, thinks and begins to find the way to better recognition of their products. The estate is a good source for powerful, colorful reds, which are sure to fuel debate with their often original and always highly mature profiles.
Guide Hachette des vins
Domaine noté (guide 2020) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)
About the domain :
South of Perpignan, Charles Perez has been running his own domaine since 2008 in the hamlet of Nyls, in the Aspres region: 25 hectares of organic vineyards planted on three hills within a 110-hectare estate. In reds, his blends give pride of place to Syrah. Each year, a different artist "sketches" this vineyard figure to illustrate his labels. The same goes for the members of his family. A sort of Catalan Mouton Rothschild!

About the wine:
Côtes Du Roussillon 2022 HiPGNOSiS 419 Blanc is more Grenache Blanc-dominated, with 20% each of Vermentino and Macabeo, all barrel-aged. It is slightly paler than the 457 and offers a more lemony, mineral style, with notes of mint herbs and white flowers. This is another beautifully balanced, layered, medium-bodied white wine from Perez with plenty to offer. It will evolve for at least 7 or 8 years, but I like it today too.
