Bobinet

The domain was founded in 2002 when Sébastien Bobinet took over 1.8 hectares of vineyards and a cellar from his grandparents. The decision to work organically was necessary, especially under the strict influence of Olivier Cousin. Sebastien started with 1.5 hectares of Cabernet Franc and 0.3 hectares of Chenin Blanc, which he vinified in a historic cellar, carved into the limestone of the Coteaux de Saumur. 
In 2007, Sebastien's desire to experiment led him to meet Bernard Pontonnier "Ponpon", who introduced him to the process of carbonic maceration.
Now Sebastien makes wine with his girlfriend Emeline Calvez. Emeline was originally a dancer, but fate decided otherwise and the world of natural wines completely captivated her.
