100% Sauvignon Blanc from Sebastien Riffault of the upper Loire. Limestone vineyards planted with 50 year old vines farmed biodynamically. Grapes are hand-picked and fermented in old barrels before being aged for 24 months in oak and 6 months in the bottle. As always, zero fining, filtration and SO2 added. Sancerre like no other!
Sebastien Riffault
Sébastien Riffault produces a kind of Sancerre that bears little resemblance to the wines most produce in that appellation today. He often harvests with a large percentage of botrytis and is not afraid of oxygen or time on skins. The resulting wines are complex, nigh kaleidoscopic expressions of Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir that really resonate.
