"The 2019 Pouilly Fumé Silex shows an initial tenderness, sitting quietly and not shouting that it's made it into your glass. This is a wine that has its act together, feeling integrated and balanced with plentiful concentration and a savory long finish. A delicate dill note, which is a characteristic of oaked Sauvignon peeks out amid the hush."
Winemaker Notes:
"Considered to be Dagueneau's grand cru, this bottle is still in its youth. The aromas and flavors have just barely started to peek and will benefit from decanting or few more years of aging. What a brilliant wine this is one magical wine from a top producer of Pouilly-Fume. Sourced from low-yield, sixty-year-old vines grown on flint soils, "Silex" is consistently the most racy and mineral-driven of Dagueneau's wines. Don't get caught sleeping on this wine."
