Magnificent mahogany colour for this 40-year-old Maury from Mas Amiel, the result of a blend of several vintages that have benefited from a minimum of 20 years of ageing. Here we enter the typical world of rancio. Everything blends together. It's a strange aromatic journey, between hot metal, encaustic, spices. Walnuts, figs and dates are mixed with brown tobacco. The finish is very long with notes of bitter oranges. A very large 40-year-old Maury with a rustic freshness.

Olivier Decelle took over Mas Amiel in 1990 and has since striven with great energy to develop the quality of this magnificent two-hundred-year-old vineyard, kingdom of the Grenache noir and Maccabeu grape varieties. 170 hectares of vines in Maury which give, on the one hand, very beautiful Roussillon wines in Côtes du Roussillon and Côtes Catalanes in white, rosé and red, on the other hand dry wines of Maury, the Maury Sec appellation was born in 2011, and the very renowned natural sweet red wines of Maury.

La Bouteille Dorée helps you find an old vintage from the year of birth of a loved one with a nice selection of old vintages of Maury wines from Mas Amiel and 40 years old wine gift ideas.
