Domaine Ricardelle de Lautrec

Domaine Ricardelle de Lautrec – Living, free and deeply Languedoc wines

In the heart of the Languedoc, in Coursan, Domaine Ricardelle de Lautrec embodies a committed, sincere approach to viticulture, resolutely focused on living ecosystems. Nestled between the influences of La Clape, Minervois and Corbières, the estate benefits from a sunny terroir, shaped by winds and steeped in history.

Here, wine is not standardised. It is the expression of a place, a vintage and a clear choice: letting nature speak.

A unique Mediterranean terroir shaped by time

The vineyard covers around 45 hectares, running alongside the legendary Via Domitia, the ancient Roman road linking Italy to Spain. Mediterranean soils, rich and diverse, combined with maritime proximity, create ideal conditions for slow, balanced ripening.

This natural setting gives rise to wines that are expressive, precise and deeply rooted in their terroir.

Certified biodynamic farming and respect for life

Driven by Cathy and Lionel Boutié, Domaine Ricardelle de Lautrec has been farmed according to certified Demeter biodynamic principles since 2022.

This strong commitment is based on observing natural cycles, enhancing soil vitality and preserving biodiversity. Here, the vine is guided, never forced.

The resulting grapes are naturally balanced, full of energy and marked by great aromatic purity.

No added sulphites, no compromise

In the cellar, the same level of commitment applies. All wines are vinified without added sulphites and exclusively with indigenous yeasts.

This approach preserves the true identity of the grapes and results in wines that are vibrant, digestible and authentic, highly appreciated by lovers of natural and biodynamic wines.
