More about Mas d'Agalis

We're talking to you about his Winery

The Mas d'Agalis is located northwest of Montpellier, in the commune of Nébian. Lionel Maurel vinifies 6.5 ha of different grape varieties (carignan, grenache, syrah, mourvèdre) and whites (terret bourret, vermentino, chenin, clairette). Two sublime red wines and a racy, mineral white. Having passed through the hands of excellent winemakers, Thierry Allemand (Cornas) and Didier Barral (Faugères), Lionel works his soils and vines naturally: ploughed soils, use of organic fertilisers only (manure), and a few treatments based on copper and sulphur powder. This is done with the greatest respect for nature, but also so that the terroir expresses itself from one year to the next and that the vintage effect can be found in his wines. The harvest is manual in small 14kg crates! The grapes are sorted, destemmed or not, according to the year and the needs, then vatted. Fermentation lasts about 15 days, followed by a vatting period of about 10 days to harmonize the fruit, tannins and aromas. Before racking and if necessary, Lionel sulphites with a maximum of 2g/hl or goes without. Finally, the ageing process lasts from 12 to 18 months, part of which is spent in barrels of 3 to 8 wines, and the other part in vats to keep a little more fruit and freshness. The whole will be blended afterwards.
