Silex is a type of soil that contains a high percentage of flint. This imparts a delightful, complex note of warm stones on this lovely wine.
+ GRAPE: 100% Sauvignon Blanc from 30+ year old vines in Sury-en-Vaux. The terroir is a classic blend Loire soils: silex, caillotes, and terres blanches.
+ FUNDAMENTALS: Fermented and aged entirely in stainless steel.
VIA THE DISTRIBUTOR:
In the petite village of Sury-en-Vaux, one of the most picturesque villages in Sancerre, sits one of the finest sources for laser cut and lacy Sauvignon Blanc from Noël et Jean Luc Raimbault.
This domaine delivers older-vine Sancerre that is raised on the sacred soils of the Loire, with an absurdly high percentage of silex for a 'classic' bottling. This is razor-fresh, with layers of white fruit and plenty of mineral purity.
