"It features intriguing warming spices, including garam masala, as well as piquant black cherry, all followed up with mouthwatering acidity." - VINOUS
Les Picasses is made from the chalky soils of the estate. The wine is matured in 30hl wooden foudres over a period of 12 to 18 months and this cuvée is characterised by its capacity to be kept for at least 15 years. Often capricious in its youth, the Picasses, once it has reached its optimum phenolic maturity, reveals a fine, persistent bouquet of blackcurrant, blackberry, morello cherry, prune, liquorice and cocoa with spicy notes. This is the case for this great vintage with a wine that is melted into a dense and vinous substance.

DOMAINE OLGA RAFFAULT

In the beautiful country of Véron, cradled between the Loire and the Vienne, the Olga Raffault estate has passed on its know-how in the development of its Chinon wines for four generations. Today, Sylvie, Olga's granddaughter, takes over with her husband Eric de la Vigerie, and they fully intend to maintain the good recipes of the past. The Olga Raffault estate covers 25 hectares of vines: 24 hectares are cultivated for Chinon Rouge and Rosé in Cabernet franc single-varietal, 1 hectare for Chinon Blanc in Chenin single-varietal. Vines with an average age of thirty years spread over 3 Terroirs producing 3 types of Chinon Rouge. The choice of terroir remains essential including soil, microclimate, grape variety and cultivation practice. The vintage or the climatic conditions encountered during the annual cycle of the vines, shape the specific character of the wine of the year, but the terroir gives the wine an easily recognizable typicity.
