Then widow and mother of two children, Olga continued this long-term work to produce a famous vintage with the help of a friend of the family, Ernest Zeinninger. Today it is Sylvie, her granddaughter, who took over with her husband Eric de la Vigerie, and they intend to maintain the good recipes of the past. They are actively working to make known these fabulous terroirs and wines of Chinon Olga Raffault, already popular in the 1980s and 1990s.
