Domaine des Aubuisières / Bernard Fouquet Vouvray Sec ‘Cuvée de Silex’

It opens with aromas of crisp green apple, quince, and citrus blossom, layered with subtle hints of pear, honey, and chalky minerality. On the palate, it is precise and energetic, showing flavors of lemon zest, orchard fruit, and wet stone, supported by racy acidity and a clean, linear structure. As it evolves, delicate notes of almond, white flowers, and smoky flint emerge, adding depth and complexity. The finish is long, crystalline, and mouthwatering, making it a benchmark dry Vouvray with excellent aging potential.
