Domaine Borie de Maurel
The Sorcerer's Wine
Vin de France | Red | 2024
A blend of Mourvèdre (90%) and Syrah (10%), produced on clay-limestone soils in Félines-Minervois, this Vin de France is made from organically grown grapes and vinified without oak aging. Hand-harvested grapes, destemmed, temperature-controlled fermentation, and a short maceration period promote an intense fruity expression. The style is dense, round, and silky, supported by a rich and structured body, with a lovely freshness.

Domaine Borie de Maurel
Syrah dominates here without overpowering the other elements: in Minervois, Michel Escande has patiently crafted a style that is ample yet never heavy-handed. The old vines, rooted in the limestone slopes, yield wines with a tight structure, consistent depth, and unexpected freshness. Extended aging refines the contours while preserving a natural spicy character. In short, the estate embodies a certain Languedoc classicism, but a living, thoughtful classicism, focused on precision rather than raw power.
