Mas Bécha - Côtes du Roussillon Hipgnosis 419 blanc 2022
94/100
Jeb Dunnuck
"Roussillon in the Burgundian Style"
“A more citrusy and mineral-driven style, with notes of minty herbs and white flowers. This is another beautifully balanced, layered, and medium-bodied white wine from Perez that has a lot to offer. It will continue to develop for at least 7 or 8 years, but I also enjoy it right now.” (Jeb Dunnuck, 2024)

About the estate:
This estate, which is as unique in its marketing approach as it is in the style of its wines, produces wines with playful labels that often leave a lasting impression. The Perez family travels, reflects, and is beginning to find a path toward greater recognition for its products. The estate is a great source of powerful, vibrant reds that are sure to spark discussion with their often-unique profiles and consistently high level of ripeness.

Rated estate (2020 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines regularly receive awards from the guide)
About the estate:
South of Perpignan, Charles Perez has been running his estate since 2008 in the hamlet of Nyls, in the Aspres region: 25 hectares of organic vineyards spread across three hills within a 110-hectare estate. For his reds, his blends feature Syrah prominently. This prominent figure in the wine region is “sketched” by a different artist each year to illustrate his labels. The same goes for his family members. The Catalan Mouton Rothschild, so to speak!

About the wine:
The 2022 Côtes du Roussillon HiPGNOSiS 419 Blanc is predominantly made from Grenache Blanc and includes 20% each of Vermentino and Macabeo, all aged in barrels. It is slightly paler than the 457 and offers a more lemony and mineral-driven style, with notes of minty herbs and white flowers. This is another beautifully balanced, layered, and medium-bodied white wine from Perez that has a lot to offer. It will age well for at least 7 or 8 years, but I also enjoy it right now.
