"Biodynamic Carignan that enters your nose rather rustic, scoop still in hand, but that shows itself generous and gentle in the mouth. Overwhelms you with thick black cherry fruit, liqueur and sweet herbs. Its tannins and acids so tender. Powerful wine, but as meek as a lamb." -Esmee Langereis
Full, powerful Carignan with soft tannins.
Domaine Richeaume is managed by Dr. Henning Hoesch (art lover, philosopher and famous cellist and pioneer of organic farming in France) and his son Sylvain. Together they produce beautiful wines.
The farm has been working organically for decades, and now biodynamically. The estate uses only manure from its own flock of sheep, and compost is made from its own grape residues, among other things. The vineyards are located in Puyloubier and cover 25 ha.
