Château Les Ricaudelles
The EARL Chateau Franc Couplet estate is a family affair, where the know-how of working the vines is passed on from generation to generation. Always looking for new grape varieties to create and new vines to exploit, Eric and Sophie acquired the Chateau les Ricaudelles estate in 2014. The latest addition to our production catalog, we invite you to discover the rich notes of this Bordeaux grape variety, during a tasting at our Landerrouat estate.

Les Ricaudelles : the difference
Located in the town of Caplong, the vineyard of Chateau Les Ricaudelles has been greatly restructured by the team in order to plant new grape varieties and thus diversify the range of offered products.
The choice was made to restructure (plant at higher density) and innovate : thus Malbec, a red grape variety, was planted on a large part of the plots.
This gives the wine, special characteristics.
