The Marselan grape was created in 1961 by Paul Truel, a leading ‘Ampelographer’ (Ampelography is the science of identifying, naming and classifying vines and grape varieties). Nowadays this is all done through DNA, but in Truel's time, it was a highly skilled
and scientific process. He was described as a man of rigour, an insatiable researcher, untiring worker, endowed with a breathtaking memory, and an unparalleled observer. The idea of him
working away in the lab, combined with the test tubes, flasks and pipettes often seen at wineries gave the idea of Le Professeur. An artist based in Carcassonne, – Sylvain
Rouaud, came up with the label as a tribute to Paul Truel.

This wine offers a rich and dense mouth feel, followed by concentrated flavours. The finish is long and juicy with subtle tannins
