Pale gold in color, the Silex Blanc is an elegant embodiment of sauvignon blanc characteristic of the Sancerre region, with a nose of tiny white flowers. In the mouth, it is silky, round, and delicate, with a pleasing richness and complexity on the back palate. It has a good balance between alcohol and acidity levels in the mouth, marked with mellow notes of wood (acacia, well-ripened exotic fruits, minerals in the background). Balance and refinement are the underpinnings of the Cuvée Silex.
Pair with saltwater fish, lightly seared foie gras and various cheeses.
