Biodynamic Tasting with Emmanuel Cazes
Wednesday 8 October 2014
,
Join us on this extremely interesting and topical tasting as we discover the art of Biodynamics in grapegrowing and winemaking. Emmanuel Cazes from Domaine Cazes will be presenting a range of wonderful wines from the Domaine at Rivesaltes which has been organic and biodynamic since 1997. Based on their view that 'the natural environment needs natural preparation' they employ the whole range of biodynamic principles from horse-ploughed vineyards to the use of natural ingredients as treatments. Today the whole 220 acre estate is biodynamic and is the one of the oldest and most recognised estate in France for this.
