MAS DU NOVI
Mas du Novi – A thousand years of winemaking with a view to the Mediterranean
Since the 11th century, Mas du Novi, a former outbuilding of the Valmagne Abbey, has been producing wine on one of the Languedoc’s finest terroirs, set at 150 metres altitude, on the last slopes of the Cévennes, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.
Today, this estate covers 50 hectares of organically farmed vineyards, nestled among 50 hectares of woodland and garrigue, and stands as a benchmark for both Languedoc Grès de Montpellier AOP and IGP Oc.
The Story
Once upon a time… Abbot Foulques, of the Abbey of Ardorel (Tarn), founded Valmagne Abbey in 1139 on lands granted by the Lord of Cabrières, vassal of Raymond Trencavel, Viscount of Béziers.
Mas du Novi was one of the abbey’s wine-growing granges, perched on the surrounding hills with breathtaking views of the coast.The earliest records mention this activity, but Roman remains found on site suggest that the vine was already cultivated here in ancient times.
