Domaine des Carabiniers is certified organic and biodynamic by Ecocert and Demeter.
The vines are grown in Pliocene sand and are surrounded by heat reflecting pebbles.
During the vine's dormant period, composted grape pomace is ploughed in to improve
the soil. Vigorous pruning takes place to select the fruiting canes. Protection of the vines
is paramount and the vines are closely monitored on a daily basis, taking into account
the weather patterns, in order to reduce the risk of mildew. The vines are green
harvested to concentrate the flavours in the remaining berries and the harvest takes
place once the grapes have reached the optimum level of maturity.
The domain covers 40 hectares in the Tavel, Lirac and Cotes du Rhône appellations and the vineyards have been certified organic since 2000 and biodynamic since 2011. Owned by the Leperchois family, who are keen devotees to the biodynamic philosophy, the domain derives its name from its role as a coaching inn and the original cellars were developed in the old stables.
