About the winery Founded in 1892, Domaines Paul Mas today tells the story of owner Jean-Claude Mas, who pioneered the revival of the Languedoc as a region for quality wines. Jean-Claude characterizes his wines as 'Le Luxe Rural', rural luxury. He has given the Languedoc 'new world' allure with international grape varieties. And with his fashionable wines from local grapes, he has made the local character of the Languedoc hip again among wine lovers. The 'Mon' series is bottled in a highly recognizable, striking 'flûte gothique' bottle, which was invented by two French students in the annual glass competition 'Formes de Luxe Awards 2022' by glass manufacturer Verallia. Domaines Paul Mas may use these bottles exclusively. Vineyard and region Sourced from several vineyards in the Languedoc at an altitude of 100-180 meters. The soils consist of clay and limestone.
