Mas des Colibris is a biodynamic domaine in the Causse d'Aumelas region of Languedoc run by former professional rugby player Sebastien Galtier. Sebastien has 12 hectares in total, all farmed organically since 1999 and surrounded by olive groves, pine forest and scrubland. Grapes are hand-harvested, fermented with indigenous yeasts and Sebastien uses biodynamic preparations to stimulate the biological life of the soil and strengthen the vine and its natural defences.
Estella is Grenache and Carignan with a touch of Syrah. A rich and generous wine with great intensity of fleshy red fruits from the Grenache, herbal overtones of the garrigue and savoury depth on the finish.
