Mas Amiel Organic Pur Schiste 2019
Market Price
To show you the value you're getting as an Angel...
We regularly benchmark a selection of our wines against up to three comparable wines on the market. The Market Price is based on the price of those wines.
What do we mean by benchmark? We taste them blind against our own wines, or we use our market knowledge (over 40 years between us) to set an industry standard Market Price.
If you buy one of our wines and disagree with the Market Price, or it's not your cup of tea, we'll add a credit to your account. For more info, see our FAQS.

About the wine
From sun-drenched vines in French Catalunya, this is the ultimate luxurious smooth red
- At Mas Amiel, we own 150 hectares of organic and biodynamic vineyards stretched across a 4km radius. All of which are defined by what we like to think of as our ‘X Factor’: calcoschiste soils!
- French Catalunya is the sunniest and driest part of France - this is great as sun, drought, and poor soils make for tons of concentration whilst our ‘X Factor’ provides the fruit with its distinctly fresh and elegant southern character.
- Dense and profound, this powerful red wine boasts a herbal character with notes of red berries, black cherries and plums. The palate has plenty of elegant tannins, underscored by fresh juice and a hint of stronger black berry flavours. This is followed by a tight minerality and a long, fresh and slightly spicy finish.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Nicolas Raffy
- Nicolas cut his teeth on his first vintage way back in 2000. And now 21 vintages down the line he can be found making high-end organic wines at the very same winery where it all started, in the small Rousillion appellation of Maury.
- Over the years at Mas Amiel Nicolas has developed a meticulous winemaking process that focuses closely on biodynamic farming and low-intervention winemaking techniques. His tiny but dedicated team of just 20 are a well oiled machine, with an intense daily routine that starts at the crack of dawn and ends late in the evening.
- Mas Amiel's has an open door culture, every year inviting visitors to get involved with harvesting the exciting new vintage at the vineyard. Nicolas can’t wait to welcome Angels to join him at Mas Amiel and meet his newly found community of wine lovers.
