Mas Amiel - Maury Fortified Red 40 ans d'Age

Grape

Grenache Noir (90%), Maccabeu (5%), Carignan (5%)

Tasting notes

A magnificent mahogany amber colored 40-year-old Maury with immensely complex notes of rancio, figs, walnuts, dried fruits, cocoa, beeswax, spices and tobacco. The aftertaste is very long with notes of orange peel and a nice freshness.

Expert Ratings

'The latest release of the NV Maury 40 Ans features high-toned, walnut-like aromas and notes of maple syrup. Yet it's surprisingly drinkable, being only medium to full-bodied, with moderate sugar levels and hints of mocha and ripe citrus on the long, long finish.'

More About The Winery

Founded in 1816, Mas Amiel is the benchmark estate of the Maury appellation in the Roussillon, southern France. With more than 200 hectares of vineyards planted on schist soils under the warm Mediterranean sun, Mas Amiel has built a reputation for producing both exceptional fortified wines and increasingly acclaimed dry reds and whites.

Originally famous for its vin doux naturel (fortified sweet wines), Mas Amiel has mastered the art of ageing Grenache-based cuvées in glass demijohns under the sun before transferring them to large oak casks, a method that creates wines of depth, complexity, and elegance. Alongside these classics, the estate now produces a remarkable range of dry wines that highlight the freshness, minerality, and terroir expression of Roussillon.

Under modern stewardship, Mas Amiel has embraced organic and biodynamic viticulture, ensuring that every bottle reflects the estate’s commitment to sustainability and authenticity.

For wine lovers in Singapore, Mas Amiel offers a unique opportunity to discover the soul of Roussillon — from legendary fortified reds to innovative dry wines, all crafted with passion and respect for tradition.
