Sancerre Silex 2021 Philippe Girard 75cl
Limited stock
If ever there was a wine that tasted of the soil in which it was grown, this is it! Philippe Girard's Silex Sancerre opens with a sensational energetic nose of ripe citrus and earthy stoney notes. The full palate is lively, rich expressive with pronounced minerality and a long, long finish. Fantastique! Producer Details Terroir plays an important role at this estate. Michel, Philippe and Benoît Girard own 19 hectares of vines planted on the three different soil structures of Sancerre: Terres Blanches (clay and limestone), Caillottes (chalky limestone) and Silex (flint). They favour judicious blending of the separately-vinified cuvées to create wines with real complexity and balance
