Tasting notes
The 2020 Mas Amiel "Vers le Nord" is a vibrant, full-bodied red with aromas of blood orange, dark berries, violets, and garrigue. On the palate, it shows juicy blueberry and blackberry fruit wrapped in soft tannins, lifted by citrus zest and herbal spice. The finish is long, fresh, and lightly savory, balancing richness with mineral tension and aromatic finesse.

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.
