The Silex cuvée is sourced from flint-rich soils along the Loire River, where a cool climate and excellent drainage allow for both ripeness and precision. Barrel fermented and aged mostly in 450 and 600 liter barrels, as well as some of Dagueneau's famous cigar barrels. Designed by the late Didier, these barrels are 350 liters and aggressively elongated. Compact and impressively built, it will gradually muscle up to unleash its phenomenal strength over the next few years.
