Domaine Ricardelle de Lautrec

France

Domaine Ricardelle de Lautrec is a pioneer in organic viticulture in the Languedoc region. For over 20 years now, Lionel Boutié and his wife Cathy have been building this family business in organic culture. Situated in Coursan, the vineyards are steeped in history, dating back to the days of the Romans more than 2,000 years ago. The estate now encompasses close to 200 ha organically farmed vineyards. A large portion of these vineyards and the winery originally belonged to the family of Toulouse-Lautrec. Lionel is a member of the fourth generation of this family of vignerons.

Working in organic and biodynamic agriculture is above all a way of being. It is respect for the earth, the animals, and the people. It means being aware that we are part of a whole. It means constantly striving for balance and harmony in everything.

The Scène range was inspired by the family ties to Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, himself a famous Impressionist painter. The labels for the Scène wines are designed with the French painter Fauve, capturing the elegance of her characters and the conviviality reminiscent of the roaring twenties. Each wine is given a different title and as such a depicts a unique scene of life.

Enjoy the collection!
