Mas Zenitude
Everything is interdependent
Mas Zenitude is winery located in Southern France with the founder as well as the winemaker of the winery is Erik Gabrielson.
Erik Gabrielson pursues a passion for returning winemaking to its roots as both a trade and an art, grounded in traditional techniques that respect the land, the vines, and the natural processes that transform the fruits of the vineyard into gorgeous wines.
Erik acquired the vineyard in 2006 and embarked on a very personal journey that required the utmost perseverance and dedication to the craft: using established practices of biodynamic viticulture - and even developing some of his own along the way - Erik returned the vineyard to a more natural, low intervention style of winemaking. The wines have responded to reflect an organically balanced terroir that is more authentic and sustainable.
The Mas Zenitude attitude embraces sensuous emotions, a
determined appeal to tradition, and the celebration of
organic energies that with eternal patience enrich and
enliven. Which is not to say nature lacks room for a certain
sophisticated flamboyance. Erik is dedicated to offering,
“wines with an attitude.” In short: Expect the unexpected.
Erik's passion has been rewarded in many ways, not least of
which is the welcome return of native birds, insects, and
wildlife to the land, after many generations they have been
missed by locals. A more immediate reward has been the
reception Mas Zenitude wines have enjoyed from critics,
customers, and wine lovers, who have responded
enthusiastically to wines that are allowed to express their
individuality in their own time, according to natural
rhythms.
Erik is always exploring and innovating within his craft, and his focus remains on techniques that embrace craftsmanship and artistry, and restore organic authenticity to the winemaking.
Follow the “Everything is interdependent” philosophy of Erik that we can say about Mas Zenitude in short: Mas Zenitude treats the soil as a living organism, one that we nourish, indulge, and support in supreme harmony with organic and biodynamic viticulture practices:
- • Grapes are handpicked, sent to fermentation tanks by simple gravity, and pressed according to traditional methods
- • No pesticides or artificial fertilizers are ever used
- • No additives or SO2 (sulfur dioxide) are ever used
Mas Zenitude's wines are artisanal, fermented with indigenous yeasts and not filtered or fined. The results are exquisitely vibrant, aromatic, and distinctive wines that defy the shortcomings of modern assembly line wine production. These are, in short, **wines as they were always meant to be.**
