Domaine Saint Cyr

Raphaël Saint-Cyr is a man of strong opinions, although he’s not afraid of changing his mind if he’s presented with sufficient evidence that he needs to do so. His approach to winemaking has undergone a complete 180-degree turnaround since he joined the family business in 2008. While he already knew that he wanted to convert the vineyards to organic production – and set to work doing so from day one – his approach to winemaking was one he’d learned from his father, in which yeasts were cultured and tannins were firmly extracted.
