Harvested from the Domaine du Mas Blanc’s oldest Grenache vines, the Banyuls “Collection” 2000 is a special subset of its Banyuls “Vieilles Vignes”. Hand harvested and trodden by foot, it was fermented in stainless steel with native yeasts and aged in 650-liter oak demi-muids for 10 years. A single 225-liter barrel was then diverted from bottling and set aside for continued elevage as part of the estate’s library of its most important wines.
