Breeding
Aged in large wooden vats for 6 to 12 months
On the eye
Deep ruby red with garnet reflections that intensify with age. Vibrant and luminous in the glass.
On the nose
Intense black fruits—cassis and blackberry—with violet florals and a distinctive wet-stone minerality. After five to seven years, expect notes of forest floor, fine leather, liquorice, and blonde tobacco.
In the mouth
Tightly woven tannins of remarkable finesse. The wine is driven by calcaire minerality that creates a vertical structure, balancing immediate fruit expression with the complexity of a true hillside wine.
Les Peuilles is the benchmark for serious Loire enthusiasts seeking authentic Chinon. This wine possesses genuine pep and breeding, with that distinctive smoky minerality characteristic of flint-based soils. It achieves the perfect equilibrium between immediate appeal and cellar-worthy complexity. Pair with poultry, game, or aged cheeses to fully appreciate its vibrant energy.

DOMAINE OLGA RAFFAULT
Based in Savigny-en-Véron in the heart of the Chinon appellation, Domaine Olga Raffault farms 24 hectares under certified organic agriculture across a mosaic of soils — sands and gravels, argilo-siliceous and argilo-calcareous — giving its Cabernet franc a rare precision of terroir. Founded in 1931, the estate owes its standing to Olga Raffault, who continued the family work alone after 1947 with remarkable resolve. At Halles Quercamps, we selected this estate for the diversity of its parcels, its rigorous organic approach, and the stature of cuvées such as Les Picasses — introduced in 1983 and now a worldwide benchmark for Cabernet franc. Today guided by Sylvie Raffault and Éric de la Vigerie.
CHINON ROUGE
Le Domaine Olga Raffault, porté par la 5e génération familiale, signe avec Les Peuilles un Chinon de terroir authentique. Ce rouge bio conjugue la gourmandise immédiate des fruits noirs avec une minéralité fumée caractéristique des coteaux de silex. Structure fine et délicate, ce vin gagne en complexité avec quelques années de garde.
