Cairanne is the southern Rhone's secret weapon, and Marcel Richaud has spent four decades proving it. Now run by daughter Claire alongside the family, this organic, naturally-minded estate makes some of the most soulful, terroir-honest reds in the appellation. Terre d'Aigles draws from old vines (averaging 60 years) on sandy-clay soils near the Aigues river — a fresh, sun-warmed Cotes du Rhone built on Grenache with Syrah, Carignan, and Counoise filling in the texture. Fermented spontaneously, aged in concrete, bottled with a light hand. Expect creamy, gulpable Grenache fruit laced with pepper, garrigue, and that unmistakable Richaud purity. One of the best CDR values you'll find anywhere.

More about Marcel Richaud

Marcel Richaud is a founder of the natural wine movement, and his 60-hectare Cairanne estate proves that low-intervention winemaking can be serious and rigorous. High-elevation parcels, high Mourvèdre plantings, fermentations in cement, long élevage in neutral oak. His children Thomas and Claire now continue the legacy. Southern Rhône at its most lifted and beautiful.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What Polaner Selections has to say about this wine:

Varietal Notes

65% GRENACHE, 20% CARIGNAN, 10% SYRAH, 5% COUNOISE

Vineyard

Made from a blend of 65% Grenache, 20% Carignan, 10% Syrah and 5% Counoise, at an average vine age of 70 years old. These historic, high-elevation vineyards are near the Aygues River and were among the first parcels vinified by Marcel Richaud in the 1970s.

Soil

Sandy, heavy clay, alluvial deposits

Viticulture

Naturally farmed, certified by ECOCERT

Vinification

Short maceration of 8-12 days in cement.

Aging

Aged 8 months in cement tank in cold underground cellars. 1.5g/L SO2 exclusively at bottling.

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Daube de boeuf with olives, herb-roasted chicken with thyme, ratatouille, lamb merguez sausages, classic pissaladiere, and aged Comte. Equally happy with a tomato-rubbed baguette and a fat hunk of garlic saucisson.

Tasting Profile

Medium-bodied, supple, and fresh. Red plum, raspberry, sweet wild strawberry, cracked black pepper, dried lavender, and garrigue herbs. Creamy concrete-aged texture, gentle tannins, and a savory, herb-tinged finish.
