Maury 30 ans d'âge - Mas Amiel

Vin Doux Naturel 

93/100 Parker

Conservation : 2015 - 2030

By Jeb Dunnuck in 2015 : "My favorite of the multi-vintage blends, the NV Maury 30 Ans is similarly colored to the 20 year, with an amber/toffee and semi-opaque color. Beautifully ripe, with lots of candied licorice, almond, old cigar and brown sugar, it’s medium to full-bodied, perfectly balanced and has vibrant acidity that keeps this lively and highly drinkable. Slightly less sour than the 20-year release, with more fruit, this beauty is drinking spectacularly today."

TERROIR

Decomposed schist and black marl, facing south.

VINEYARDS

90 % Grenache noir - 5% maccabeu - 5% carignan.

VINIFICATION

Hand picked. Destemmed harvest. Maturation on the grapes followed by followed by a 30-day maceration to extract the aroma and polyphenols (aroma, polyphenols) contained in the berries and to obtain a beautiful structure balanced between fruit, alcohol and sugar.

MATURING

Aged for one year in glass bottles placed outside, then in 350 hl oak tuns. This particularly long ageing process, a true signature of Mas Amiel, allows the wine to acquire a great maturity of aromas and structure.

TASTING

A bewitching wine. Its colour becomes lighter. It reminds us of tobacco leaf, praline, coffee liqueur and roasted almonds. Then everything switches to an old orange liqueur to take us on a journey to the Orient in the world of spices. A lively wine with a dazzling freshness. A bluffing finish with a soft structuring bitterness.
