90 pts James Suckling. Innovation and a passion for the Languedoc are what drives Jean-Claude Mas. Since taking the helm of his family’s winery in 2000, he has prioritized sourcing the highest quality grapes to craft wines of authenticity and refinement. His range of Côté Mas Sud de France 1L blends convey the warmth, beauty, and grace of this southern French region. With playful labels of rustic picnic scenes, they embody Jean-Claude’s philosophy of le luxe rural, or rural, everyday luxury. Vibrant notes of citrus, grapefruit, and a touch of tropical fruits. Refreshing, with well-balanced acidity. Pairs well with chicken, fish and curry, but also great on its own.
