Marcel Richaud is a leading figure in Cairanne, known for championing organic farming and minimal intervention since the 1980s. His 2023 Cairanne blends Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre from old vines rooted in stony clay-limestone soils.

Fermented with native yeasts and aged in concrete to preserve freshness and purity. A vibrant, structured Southern Rhône red that shows the depth of its cru origins.

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.
