Sury-en-Vaux, Sancerre
Splendid company in the heart of the Sancerre AOC which extends over 3 hectares of silica-rich vineyards that Sebastien Riffault inherited from his father and which he runs together with his wife.
The company has been certified organic since 2007, but the approach in the vineyard is actually absolutely natural and the grapes are always harvested at full phenolic ripeness.
In the cellar the alcoholic and malolactic fermentations are spontaneous, the wine is neither clarified nor filtered
