1975 Domaine du Mas Blanc 'Collection 1975' Banyuls

Deep and resonant, this Banyuls shows aromas of dried cherry, fig, and cocoa, with hints of orange peel and forest floor. The palate is rich yet refined, with layered sweetness balanced by bright acidity and a long, lingering finish. Despite its age, the wine retains vibrancy and tension, offering complexity without heaviness.

Fermented with native yeasts, the wine is aged oxidatively in old oak barrels, allowing concentration and nuance to develop over decades. Minimal intervention preserves the purity of the fruit and the natural evolution of the wine over time.

Domaine du Mas Blanc is located in Banyuls-sur-Mer on France’s southern Mediterranean coast. The region’s schist soils and warm climate produce fortified wines of depth and longevity. This bottling exemplifies both the site’s distinctive character and the domaine’s meticulous, traditional approach to aging and fortification.
