Domaine des Aubuisieres Bernard Fouquet Cuvee de Silex Vouvray 2022
$42.00
Description
An absolute steal at this price point! White wine. Vouvray, Loire, France. Organic. 100% Chenin Blanc. Bouquet of pear, green apple, quince, and melon that develops notes of mineral and honey. Expressive and exceptionally well balanced on the palate with lots of lemon and a trace of anise.
Bernard Fouquet, a quiet-spoken man, is making some of the most serious Vouvray of the last few vintages. He is now regarded in France and the international press as one of the top three Vouvray producers. No one succeeds better than Bernard in capturing the mineral tones unique to Vouvray’s soil, with the marvelous balance of explosive fruit and titillating sensation of the Chenin Blanc grape. Sensational value.
Domaine des Aubuisires is composed of 28ha of Chenin Blanc planted on the best terroir of Vouvray. Light yellow woth a hint of green. Green melon, ripe lemon and mineral notes on the nose. Delicate acidity carrying the floral-tinged finish.
