Winemaking team Bernard Fouquet and Charles Lesaffres produce some of the finest Vouvray at Domaine des Aubuisières and this Cuvée De Silex is no exception.
Produced on the famous flinty soils of the Loire, in the glass, this wine displays a pure and linear character on the nose. The palate is dominated by minerals, with citrus and floral aromas to balance out the minerality, with some melon and crimson apple and lemon peel to compliment the minerals.

The Coteau des Treilles vineyard located in Beaulieu-sur-Layon was abandoned after World War Two as it became to difficult to farm by tractor, which became all the rage in the post-war period. Seeing the potential of this great vineyard, the family purchased all 70 parcels from 25 different owners over the course of 3 1/2 years eventually achieving a monopole of this great Anjou site.
