Producer Domaine Sébastien Riffaul

FRANCE, LOIRE

The Domaine Sebastien Riffault is a historic wine cellar in the Loire since it was founded in the 1900s. In the last few years, the 20-year-old Sebastien, who in a few years turned it off like a sock for producing wines that were terroir's expression, took over. 12 hectares of vineyards stretching in the municipalities of Sancerre, Verdigny and Sury-en-Vaux, all planted with Sauvignon Blanc, which in these limestone and silica soils has found the place to grow. Sebastien Riffault is very attentive to nature, its vineyards are bred in biodynamic and to use them again to use the horse to keep the ground soft. In the cellar only spontaneous vinification, no clarification or filtration and sulfur is added only in small part in the "Le Rouet" wine. The names of the wines are in Lithuanian, in honor of the wife of Sebastien Riffault: Auksinis, which represents golden, Skeveldra, which is a piece of stone and finally Akménimé, that is made with stone. Very vertical wines, unbleached minerals.
