Winemaking:

The grapes from the Auksinis cuvées have first undergone a week of maceration on its skins before its regular fermentation and aging.

One of the most celebrated winemakers, Sebastien Riffault has gained a cult-like following with atypical golden hued Sancerre wines that are worth geeking out on.

In the vineyard, Sebastien follows organic and biodynamic principles and late harvesting with a touch of noble rot - no fertilizers, low yields, hand picking and even horse plowing. Choices in the cellar include fermentation with wild yeast, extended skin contact, in the oxidative style, low sulphur, and extended time on lees…

This is Sancerre - Sauvignon Blanc but not as your know it. The result of each are wines that are complex, structured, one of a kind, and delicious.
