Product Description:

"Silex" directly translates to "flint". Sancerre’s silex soils were created by the erosion of limestone over the course of thousands of years, this left much of the harder flint stones behind. This means that in many “silex” vineyards you will also find some limestone and other rocks in the mix.

Flint doesn’t just give the vineyards a different look, it gives the local wines a special character. Silex makes for utterly delicious and distinctive wines that are highly prized by many wine lovers.

Jean Marie Reverdy Sancerre Silex is a crisp Sancerre with floral and mineral aromas leading to a lively, balanced palate, with concentrated citrus fruit, a lovely sensation of freshness and great aromatic persistence.
