Domaine Mas den Founs

The vineyard of Mas den Founs is located in a small vilage, called Vivès in the South of France, in between the Mediterranean Sea and the Mount Canigou of the Pyrenees. This region is blessed with an exceptional climate, combining a morning dawn, caused by the mediterranean air inflow and in the afternoon the Northern, cold Tramontane. The latter cleaning the vines nearly daily.

The grapes are handpicked at full maturity and selected during harvest. Vinification is temperature controlled. Maceration of red wines lasts at least 3 weeks in stainless steal tanks.
