Mas Mellet 'Pari Finesse' 2025

Emilie and Brice Bolognini started their wine adventure together 20 years ago when they bought 27 hectares of abandoned vines. Since their first vintage in 2003, they've slowed things down. Cut back to 15 hectares. Converted to biodynamic farming. Planted hundreds of trees around the estate. Mimosa, pomegranate, olive, fig. All the work in the vines is done by hand, with sheep helping out during the winter. In the cellar, they keep it simple. Indigenous yeasts, low inputs, minimal sulphites at bottling. That's it.

'Paris Finesse' is a blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Carignan from steep slopes that get plenty of sun. Intense aromas of blackcurrant and red fruits, herbal garrigue, sweet spices. There's a real freshness here, a delicate minerality that makes it fantastic with lighter dishes. Drink it slightly chilled, with grilled vegetables or a nice, juicy burger.
