Le Domaine
Marcel Richaud is one of those exceptional winemakers who strive for uncompromising quality. He defines his way of creating his organic wines as follows: a natural approach to winemaking, questioning the use of products or techniques that erase the identity of the vintage or contribute to the production of standard wines. The organic bottles produced in Cairanne by the Marcel Richaud estate are without equal.
The attention paid by Marcel Richaud to the vines and the winemaking process have made the Richaud estate a benchmark in terms of deliciousness and freshness for Rhône Valley wines. The prices are more than reasonable considering the quality of the wines produced.
