EARTHY ELEGANCE
Marius was born in a little village in the Ariège Pyrenees, and dreamed of being a schoolteacher, but he turned out to be a winemaker. The culmination of a simple life.
This terroir wine is more likely to call to mind classicism, the earthy elegance of a blessed time when Bordeaux was synonymous with what they nowadays call “drinkability”.
Vintages made for ageing, perfumed like old roses, blissfully ignorant of fashion and its foibles but enamoured of beef rib roasted with the vine shoots, and healthy, earthy food.
The gravelly, sandy soils give this red an elegant and powerful character.
King Merlot rules over the entire blend.
Refusing to succumb to the siren call of productivism of the 1960s, Marius’ vineyard has never used herbicides or chemical fertilizers.
A tractor replaced the horse that started off, but the philosophy remained the same.
Our practices comply with Organic specifications (we were certified in 2021) and the precepts of bio-dynamics.
Fermentation has been the natural process for preserving food since time immemorial.
The tannins and colour are diffused by infusion, at the natural pace at which sugar transforms into alcohol, without any sudden movement.
Because we refuse to flavour the wine, ageing takes place in concrete vats.
MARIUS is a wine to keep, authentic to the Lalande de Pomerol terroir.
We have selected vintages which, after several years spent in the darkness of our cellars, are now ready to drink!
Each vintages are presenting different facets of the evolution of a Grand Vin.
