2013 Légende, Mas Amiel, Languedoc-Rousillon, France, Maury Sec
Mas Amiel is 170 hectares and owned by Olivier Decelle. It benefits from an exceptional location in the heart of the Vallée de l'Agly near Maury. In the north it is protected by the Corbières, on the south by the Pyrenees. Mas Amiel can also enjoy a unique semi-dry Mediterranean climate. Olivier Decelle is supported by a consultant of international repute: Claude Bourguignon, a specialist in the field of soil microbiology. Both he and Olivier Decelle have a very great respect for nature.
North of Mas Amiel, the plot of Cabirou forms a ring of 2 HA. The soil is presents strongly decomposed calcoschists. We find this schist and clay gravel more than 1,50 meters deep before hitting bedrock. The favorable alchemy: soil, orientation South-East and age of the vines gave birth to the first dry Maury of history.
