Claude Riffault

Based in the village of Sury-en-Vaux, Stéphane Riffault works 33 different parcels in 8 different lieu-dits spread across 4 villages. The three main soil types of Sancerre are individually expressed in the range of wines made. Within the 13.5 hectares of vines no synthetic material is used and starting in 2017 the property has been certified organic by ECOCERT and biodynamic by BIODYVIN. Having studied and worked in Burgundy and closely with Olivier Leflaive, it’s easy to see the Burgundian influence in Stéphane’s wines. The mastery of terroir standing shoulder–height with the wood is rarely duplicated in Sancerre.
