Muse Vintage Wines 1977 Grenache – A Timeless Treasure from Maury, France

Origin & Terroir:
Nestled in the quaint village of Sainte Colombe de la Commanderie, at the base of Mont Canigou in the Languedoc-Roussillon region, this 1977 Grenache from Muse Vintage Wines embodies the essence of Maury’s unique terroir. The Aspres area, meaning “arid” in Catalan, is renowned for its chalky clay and schist soils—ideal for crafting exceptional vins doux naturels. This rare vintage benefits from decades of careful aging, preserving its rich complexity and depth.

Winemaking Heritage:
A legacy of foresight and passion, Georges Mossé (1884–1964), patriarch of the estate, began reserving select vintages in oak barrels post-WWI to safeguard their quality. Today, Philippe Mossé—dubbed “the Archivist” by Jancis Robinson—continues this tradition with meticulous attention to detail. Collaborating with regional authorities, he ensures every bottle’s provenance is authenticated, offering wines from three prestigious appellations: Rivesaltes, Banyuls, and Maury. Vintages span 1874 to 1988, making this collection a rare gem for collectors and connoisseurs.

Tasting Notes & Experience:
With a robust 17% ABV, this 1977 Grenache delivers a symphony of flavors—dried fruits, spices, and a hint of oak-aged elegance. Its balanced sweetness and lingering finish make it perfect for sipping solo or pairing with artisanal cheeses and desserts. Unlike modern fortified wines, this vintage reflects traditional methods, offering a taste of history in every glass.
