Olga Raffault Les Barnabés Chinon

In the beautiful country of Véron, cradled between the Loire and the Vienne, the Olga Raffault estate has been transmitting its know-how in the production of its Chinon wines for five generations. Olga Raffault has devoted her whole life to these landscapes that she loved so much and has always been able to share her love of wine.

Les Barnabés are shaped by the alluvium of the Loire and the gravel of the Vienne in the town of Savigny-en-Véron. This cuvée blooms from its earliest youth between 14 and 16°C and can be enjoyed with white and roast meats.

Certified organic.
