Mas du Colombel, AOC Faugères, Red
The winery uses no pesticides and is regularly rewarded by the wine world's most representative wine guides. This is why Bruno decided to produce his own label, partnering with the Chabberts. Mas de Colombel is the name for a plot Bruno and the Chabberts decided to work with and use the grapes from in this exciting and exclusive wine venture.
The story
Few winegrowers can boast of a closer connection to the deep history of their culture than the Chabberts. In their home (Château de Coussiniojouls), which is one of the original structures of a Middle-Age castle, one can see the vestiges of an ancient world. The vineyard, in its current state, is relatively young (it all started in the 70's), but the family vineyard has been part of the property for a very long time. In recent years the winery has gained a solid reputation for its well made Faugères wines.
Vinification
Handpicked from single vineyards, cold maceration and gentle winemaking process; fermented separately in concrete vessels at low temperatures with daily pumping and plunging-over. Blended for maturation before bottling.
