This Sancerre Rouge Silex comes from a 0.57 ha plot, planted for over 45 years on a clay-siliceous terroir known as “ Silex ”.
This wine exudes aromas of sunny, even jammy fruits (strawberry, blackberry, redcurrant) and fine woody notes . The palate is generous and ripe with substance and melted tannins . The discreet woodiness blends pleasantly with the fruitiness.
Food Pairing: Sancerre Rouge Silex will pair wonderfully with fine meats such as quail or rabbit, but also with a platter of mature cheeses .
Asian spicy food like Thai Massaman curries or spiced skewers, grilled meats or vegetables.
Wine-making:
*Bouchard Ainé & Fils, Savigny les Beaunes 2022 x 1
Aromas of small, ripe red and black berries with a hint of game. Good concentration on the palate, with a generous structure, velvety texture and fruity flavours: a rich wine with silky tannins.

*Domaine Jules Desjourneys Moulin a Vent Le Styx Rouge 2019 x 1
A vibrant berry fruit, here with a deeper width of faintly spiced aroma. Fresher, energetic, almost mineral. Clean, dark-fruited. A freshness that’s really as much a tension – great wine again. Subtle finishing but extra long too.
Food Pairing: A perfect pair with seafood and light fish dishes, white meat and goat cheese average exposure level. Try this wine accompanied by a fillet of sea bass with citrus sauce, carpaccio of scallops with mango, or chicken, fried in breadcrumbs thyme, peaches.

*Bzikot Père et Fils, Volnay 2020 x 1
Very expressive, with aromas of fresh cherry, redcurrant, rose and peony, with a discreet peppery touch in the background. Supple and juicy attack, beautiful freshness and fine tannins. The overall effect is fluid and balanced, with a lovely floral persistence on the finish. A fine, digestible wine that calls for a meal.
