Jean-Claude Mas has a talent for discovering exceptional terroirs.
In 2010, he recognised the potential of Terrasses du Larzac. He purchased 27 hectares in Ceyras and expanded it to 42 hectares.
The domaine, established in 1960, sits in Ceyras. It’s nestled in a delta between the Hérault river and the Lergue tributary, surrounded by Mont Baudile and the Rocher des Vierges.
The name “Domaine des Crès Ricards” reflects its rocky landscape. “Crès” in Occitan signifies exposed rocks.
The area features a vast plateau of red earth strewn with galets roulés, or large pudding stones.
Merlot 100% – Pays d’Oc – Protected Geographical Indication
40% of the cuvée is aged in American (70%) and French (30%) oak barrels for 6 months.
Colour: Deep ruby colour.
Nose: Aromas of blackberries and plums, evolving towards gourmet cocoa notes.
Palate : Structured, complex and unctuous. Lots of character for this 100% Merlot. Flavours of ripe fruit and prune, enhanced by fine spices and fine tannins, with notes of mocha and cocoa bean.
