About Mas Zenitude

Mas Zenitude is located 40 km northwest of Montpellier in the Languedoc region. We have 6 hectares of vineyards that mostly surround our home in St. Jean de Fos. Our philosophy is simple: work with energies that create and maintain life. We believe that a healthy soil and environment creates a higher quality wine. We began our biodynamic conversion in 2006, and bottled our first commercial offering in 2009. All our wines have nothing added, nothing taken away.
