DESCRIPTION
History
Born from a warm and concentrated vintage, this Maury Vieille Réserve embodies the strength and elegance of traditional natural sweet wines.
Vinification
Predominantly Grenache Noir, mutaged on the grapes, then aged for several decades in casks and oak barrels, following the purest Maury tradition.
Tasting Notes
Amber robe with mahogany highlights. Complex nose of dried fruits, roasted coffee, oriental spices, and noble rancio notes. The palate is velvety and intense, revealing flavors of walnut, candied orange, and gingerbread. A long and persistent finish that pairs beautifully with high-quality chocolate or game in sauce.
REGION
Roussillon
France
In the heart of Roussillon, the Maury appellation spreads over black schist slopes that hold the heat of the sun and give Grenache Noir its ideal terroir. Alongside this leading grape, Grenache Gris and Grenache Blanc complete the mix. This mineral, luminous setting gives powerful, expressive vins doux naturels, mostly red, but also amber or tawny. Maury comes in several styles. Maury Grenat (or young Maury) shows generous fruit, with intense notes of cherry and blackberry. Maury Traditionnel and Vieux Maury are aged oxidatively, revealing aromas of cocoa, fig, coffee and elegant rancio. Old vintages, sometimes kept for decades in cask, are especially sought after: they combine depth, complexity and an astonishing freshness that defies time.
