Mas Amiel comes from the name of an engineer who won 10 hectares of vines in 1816 during a card game. Protected to the north by the Corbières hills and to the south by the first slopes of the Pyrenees, Mas Amiel is located near the village of Maury and now spans 100 hectares of vines. Truly part of the renaissance of the Maury appellation that saw winemakers invest to produce higher quality wines and become more ambitious in the sale of their wines. Since then, the vineyard was purchased by Olivier Decelle in 1999 (who also owns vineyards in Saint-Emilion and Fronsac), and it has continued to improve in quality. Dry wines have also made a comeback in Maury and at Mas Amiel (in which it played an important role), and the dry wines have since earned their own AOC and organic certification.
Mas Amiel is certified organic and is in the process of converting to biodynamic certification.

This cuvée is a sweet wine made of 100% Grenache Noir. At Mas Amiel, the term ‘vintage’ refers to the fortified wines made to be opened in their youth. This cuvée comes from the Devèze parcel which is exposed to the south, where the soils are made up of schist and stones. Vinification takes place in concrete vats as well as thermoregulated steel containers. The fortification on grape musts happens part way through the fermentation process. There is then a 15-20 day maceration. Tis cuvée is very expressive Maury with aromas of blackcurrant and cherry. We recommend tasting this wine with dishes that combine sweet and salty flavours such as a lamb and prune tagine.
