The serious bottle from one of Cairanne's most beloved estates. L'Ebrescade comes from very old vines perched at 330 meters above the village — a high, breezy site of galets roules and clay that gives Marcel Richaud the structure and concentration he reserves for this Mourvedre-driven cuvee. Vintage to vintage the blend shifts, but Mourvedre leads the way with Syrah and Grenache in support, all aged twenty-four months in large neutral wood. The result is dark, brooding, and saline — black fruits, licorice, sweet spice, garrigue, and a wild, gamey edge that screams southern Rhone done right. Built for cellaring, but already singing with air.

Decanter

"Densely coloured, with a very intense, vibrant nose of liquorice and violets. Full-bodied, rich, creamy black cherry and blackberry fruit, really intensely flavoursome. Rich in ripe tannins, with good acidity. The alcohol is quite high, but that's the price you pay for such expressive, ripe, delicious black fruit! Firm tannins, like blackberry skins."

More about Marcel Richaud

Marcel Richaud, a fifth-generation grower, founded his Cairanne domaine in 1974 and has become the appellation's champion. His natural approach starts in the vines: old goblet-trained vines, newer high-elevation parcels near the Dentelles, and more Mourvèdre than the rules technically allow. Grapes ferment by variety with native yeasts in cement, then age in large neutral casks, unfined and unfiltered, often with no added sulfur. His children Claire and Thomas now work alongside him. Southern Rhône at its most lifted and beautiful.
