"Confusion 2013 is a pure, late-harvested Grenache, both fresh in its aromas (mouthwatering crushed strawberry) and heady in its balance, for an exceptional caress." (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2016 - RVF)

About the wine:
Confusion 2013 is a pure, late-harvested Grenache, both fresh in aroma (tantalizing crushed strawberry) and heady in balance, for an exceptional caress.
About the domain :
Former restaurateurs in Alsace, Pierre and Mireille Mann gave in to the irrepressible urge to become winegrowers, setting up in 2005 in the maritime sector of the Fitou appellation. After three years in a cooperative winery, during which time they converted the vineyard to organic farming, they began production of Mas des Caprices in 2009. Most of the vineyard is located on the Leucate plateau, on the edge of the cliffs overlooking the sea, in a magnificent, unspoilt environment. A harmonious blend of thirst-quenching and more ambitious cuvées, the wines give pride of place to local grape varieties (carignan and grenache gris), combining ripeness and freshness of fruit. This is an address to discover first, a particularly coherent range, where freedom of tone is combined with precision of flavor.
