Domaine des Aubuisieres - Bernard Fouquet Cuvée de Silex Vouvray 2022

Vouvray with serious energy ⚡🍏 

If you love high-acid, mineral-driven whites, the 2022 Domaine des Aubuisieres Cuvée de Silex is one to know. Made by Bernard Fouquet, one of the top names in Vouvray, this is Chenin Blanc in its purest, most electric form. 

Vouvray is renowned for producing some of the world’s finest and most age-worthy Chenin Blanc, and this bottle is no exception. As the name suggests, Cuvée de Silex (Cuvée of flint) comes from flint-heavy soils, giving the wine a sharp, stony minerality that cuts through its bright citrus, green apple, and white peach notes. There’s a subtle honeyed edge, a whisper of florals, and that signature Chenin acidity that makes it endlessly refreshing. 

Drink now for its crisp precision, or age it to let those complex layers evolve. Either way, this is Loire Valley Chenin at its finest.
