influenced by Burgundy's parcel-based winemaking methods, Stéphane Riffault
quality of his wines to the delight of Sancerre lovers.
The vineyard is planted with a majority of Sauvignon Blanc (13 hectares), complemented by
2.3 hectares of Pinot Noir. Soils are grassed and ploughed, and pruning, disbudding and trellising
