Description

Domaine Dagueneau's Pouilly-Fumé Silex embodies the excellence and pure expression of Sauvignon Blanc. This legendary cuvée comes from old vines aged between 25 and 60 years, planted on flint-rich terroirs that give the wine a sharp minerality and exceptional depth. The grapes are harvested by hand at optimum ripeness, guaranteeing impeccable fruit quality. The meticulous vinification process is based on the use of indigenous yeasts, careful settling of the must and long ageing on the lees in large-capacity barrels (‘cigars’ and ‘tonnes’). When young, Silex is firm and taut, gradually revealing aromas of white flowers, roots and zan. The palate is dense, straightforward and chiselled, with vibrant energy and a lingering finish. This great wine for laying down, with its unique profile, can be fully appreciated after 5 to 10 years in the cellar, revealing all the complexity and purity of the Pouilly terroir.
