Our take on this vintage
Borie de Maurel Estate
Syrah dominates here without overshadowing the rest: in the Minervois, Michel Escande has patiently developed a style that is full-bodied yet never heavy. The old vines, rooted in the limestone hillsides, yield juices with a tight structure, consistent depth, and an unexpected freshness. Extended aging refines the contours while preserving a natural spicy character. In short, the winery embodies a certain Languedoc classicism—but a lively, thoughtful classicism focused on precision rather than raw power.
