The majority of its portfolio is dedicated to the Cabernet Franc-based red wines from the village of Chinon. The domaine started in the early half of the 20th Century, when recently widowed Olga Raffault achieved her first vintage with the help of a WWII German prisoner of war, Ernest Zenninger. This began a successful family winemaking business that is today managed by Sylvie Raffault and her husband, Eric de la Vigerie. The 24 hectare (60 acre) estate consists of 23ha (57 acres) of vineyards devoted to the cultivation of Cabernet Franc for the domaine's Chinon Rouge and rosé varietal wines, with the remaining hectarage planted to Chenin Blanc for its single Chinon Blanc wine. The vines are 30 years old on average and sit on three unique soil types that produce three distinct Chinon Rouge wines: Les Barnabés (sand-gravel), Les Peuilles (silt-clay) and Les Picasses (clay-limestone). Domaine Olga Raffault's fourth Chinon Rouge wine, La Singulière, is a select blend of Cabernet Franc grapes grown on the oldest of the domaine's clay-limestone vineyard plots.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2024-04-03T13:01:15-04:00","created_at":"2024-03-29T18:55:19-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","Other_Wine","Producer_Olga Raffault","Region_Loire","RK270324","Source_VendorEmail0324","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Cabernet Franc"],"price":212800,"price_min":212800,"price_max":212800,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44562953142410,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2017 | Olga Raffault | Chinon Les Picasses","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":212800,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/85_db54cc9d-9fa4-43e3-b4a9-9436c13ce14b.png?v=1711752970"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/85_db54cc9d-9fa4-43e3-b4a9-9436c13ce14b.png?v=1711752970","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2017 | Olga Raffault | Chinon Les Picasses at CaskCartel.com","id":26590266622090,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.316,"height":395,"width":125,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/85_db54cc9d-9fa4-43e3-b4a9-9436c13ce14b.png?v=1711752970"},"aspect_ratio":0.316,"height":395,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/85_db54cc9d-9fa4-43e3-b4a9-9436c13ce14b.png?v=1711752970","width":125}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2017 | Olga Raffault | Chinon Les Picasses\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine is simply outstanding on both the nose and palate, with the bouquet hopping from the glass in a vibrant and already complex blend of sweet dark berries, cassis, cigar wrapper, gravelly soil tones, a touch of smoked meats, currant leaf and a smoky topnote.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Olga Raffault\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2017\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Cabernet Franc\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e France, Loire\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine is simply outstanding on both the nose and palate, with the bouquet hopping from the glass in a vibrant and already complex blend of sweet dark berries, cassis, cigar wrapper, gravelly soil tones, a touch of smoked meats, currant leaf and a smoky topnote.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eProducer Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDomaine Olga Raffault is a French wine estate situated in the central Loire.
