This classic Rhône red evokes the craggy,
brambly landscapes that make Southern
France so irresistible.
What You Need To Know
Sixth-generation vintner Cyril Marès
makes consistently delicious wines in the underrated Costières
de Nîmes region, a slice of southern Provence. In his twenties, Marès
traveled and worked abroad, gaining experience at California’s
Chalone Vineyards and in Chile before returning to France in 1996
to take over his family’s estate, Mas de Bressades. He turns out
spicy, barrel-aged red wines, rich whites and vibrant rosés under the
Mas de Bressades and Mas Grand Plagniol labels, all from estategrown
grapes.
