MARCEL RICHARD CUVEE BULBILLE 2023
Marcel Richaud is one of the great growers of the Rhône, now helmed by Marcel’s two children Thomas and Claire. A "Bulbille" is a young bud. The idea came from Claire to have an experimental cuvée to learn from with the ultimate goal to making fresh wines even in very warm climates.
Harvested early to retain as much natural acidity as possible, they blend native Counoise with Grenache and Cinsault in a semi-carbonic environment to make the fruit really pop-crackle. The result is pure and buoyant Rhône rouge with a joyous demeanour.
Grapes 51% Grenache, 34% Counoise and 15% Syrah
Origin Cotes du Rhone, France
