Tasting note Domaine Richeaume

Full-bodied French wine with an aroma of red fruit and herbs. The spicy intense taste - young drunk - fits well with spicy dishes. Once ripened very tasty with veal or poultry.

Description

At Domaine Richeaume all conditions are in place to make great wines. The grapes are grown organically here. The low yield per vine means that the grapes benefit optimally from the sun and the nutrients in the soil. Winemaker Sylvain Hoesch is a true traditionalist, but has also gained experience with leading and modern producers. A wonderful mix of respect for terroir and modern technology results in flawless wines. This is also the wine of the carragon grape. This wine is - because of hard tannins and banal smells - often not very interesting, but in the hands of Richeaume it is a great wine. Southern France at its best!
