Mas des Caprices

Mas des Caprices is a property owned by Mireille and Pierre Mann, located on the Leucate peninsula. The children of Alsatian winemakers and former restaurateurs, they set up in 2005 and began producing their own wines in 2009. From their Alsatian roots and through their philosophy, the couple have been able to enhance their love of the land and express it through wines full of fruit, saline tension and purity, far from the classics. 

The Mas des Caprices vineyard now boasts 15 hectares of certified organic and biodynamic vines. It extends over a magnificent terroir that stretches from the limestone plateau of Leucate to the schistose foothills of the Corbières. All work, from vineyard to winery, is carried out with respect for nature and the wines produced.

Mas des Caprices wines are produced largely from old local grape varieties, such as Grenache gris or Carignan, and literally shine with their ripeness and freshness of fruit.

"Vinified and matured in an egg-shaped vat, this is a white with length and complexity.

A cuvée that seduces with its complex, gourmand nose and floral bouquet. The attack is invigorating, followed by roundness and suppleness on the palate. The finish, with its fresh iodine notes, invites you to enjoy it with exotic cuisine or a seafood platter. A real treat!

"A fine, concentrated Fitou, to be forgotten in the cellar".

"This cuvée expresses Fitou's limestone and proximity to the sea. The bouquet offers the scents of the garrigue that surrounds the plot, enhanced by jammy black fruits. The palate is elegant, fresh and delicious, with a pretty finish of strawberry and redcurrant mixed with minerality. A loose fitou". (Le Guide Hachette 2024).

"A signature of the estate, rarely has a Fitou achieved such finesse and freshness.

"Intense nose of ripe berries, dark plums, cassis, earth and bark. Medium-bodied with firm tannins. Juicy on the palate, with notes of black cherry juice and a vibrant finish. Made from biodynamically grown grapes. For drinking or cellaring." (James Suckling 2023) Cuvée conviviale par excellence!

R.A.S as in Rouge À Siroter, a bit of a scoundrel, perfect for parties with friends. Sweet and suave, it's best served chilled, without fuss, just for the pleasure of it, but with moderation. In other words, a pleasure to discover without further ado!

"This cuvée, composed of Carignan, Mourvèdre and the rare Lledoner Pelut, shines with a beautiful ruby hue. After aeration, it opens with notes of black fruit, undergrowth and graphite. The palate is frank and clean, with plenty of freshness. The fruity notes prevail for a long time, carried by a light sparkle and underlined by a saline touch on the finish". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2020) A superb terroir wine!

"Here's a particularly successful wine, full and flavorful, with fruit that's slightly candied but remains fresh, plenty of relief in the flavor of resin, pine needle and sweet spices." (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2018 - RVF) A red like we love them!

(2013 vintage notes)

Oufti is a convivial cuvée par excellence, with savory notes of ripe fruit, finely wooded, accompanied by typically Mediterranean scents of garrigue. The palate is harmonious and round, with lovely, silky tannins. This wine should be aired and/or decanted. A delicious and highly original Fitou!
