Domaines Richard is, above all, the story of a family passionate about wine since 1892.
This expertise, passed down through generations, is rooted in a constant pursuit of perfection – from the vine to every glass of wine.
Rooted in the vineyards since 1960, the Richard family draws inspiration from three major wine regions:
the Rhône Valley, Bordeaux, and Beaujolais, crafting wines with many expressions that reflect the richness and diversity of their grape varieties.
A family passionate about wine since 1892.
Since their first acquisition in Bordeaux in the 1950s, Domaines Richard have grown organically, guided by passion and instinct.
Today, they encompass over 450 hectares of vineyards across three iconic wine regions: the Rhône Valley, Beaujolais, and Bordeaux.
Here, where the Rhône takes on a Provençal character, the Richard family showcases three exceptional terroirs through a mastery of seven grape varieties – three reds: Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, and four whites: Grenache Blanc, Clairette, Roussanne, Viognier.
These terroirs include:
Château La Nerthe in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Les Cassagnes de La Nerthe in the Côtes-du-Rhône at the foot of the Massif d’Uchaux, and Le Prieuré de Montézargues in Tavel.
One red grape variety—Gamay, and one white—Chardonnay. Ten crus and three hundred terroirs: welcome to Beaujolais, Burgundy’s southern soul.
From the golden-stone villages at the gates of Lyon to the rolling hills stretching to Mâcon above the Saône plain, this is where the Richard family reveals the true spirit of Beaujolais.
They do so through two emblematic estates:
Château de Corcelles, a listed historic monument and regional flagship, and Château des Tours, the citadel of Brouilly.
On either side of the Gironde estuary – surrounded by pine forests, moorlands, rolling hills, and majestic landscapes – each estate’s terroir offers an exceptional setting for Bordeaux’s emblematic grape varieties:
Merlot and Cabernet for the reds, Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon, and Muscadelle for the whites.
