About Domaine Henri Richard
The Henri Richard domain is located in the heart of the village of Gevrey-Chambertin, south of Dijon, with the two hectares of vineyard "Aux Corvées" of the same appellation behind the house. It is a real family estate founded in 1938. Before that, the house and vineyard belonged to Gaston Roupnel, a famous writer-historian.
Since 2013, the fourth generation has been in charge: Richard Bastien is an oenologist and Sarah Bastien-Berthier is a Master in International Wine Trade, people with wine in their blood. Thanks to collaboration with Guillaume Berthier, the estate has been certified organic-dynamic under the Demeter label since 2018.
The philosophy believes in living and stable soils, with healthy vines in a protected environment. The vines grow in a temperate maritime climate with continental tendencies with sunshine, an annual average of 1,831 hours per year. They lie due east, at an altitude of between 250 and 350 m, on a clay-limestone subsoil.
Since 1996, all herbicides and acaricides have been abolished. Apart from a light dose of sulfur before bottling, there is no further oenological addition to the wines.
