Domaine d'Orfeuilles Silex Vouvray
Domaine d'Orfeuilles Silex Vouvray is a special white wine from the Vouvray appellation in the Loire Valley, France. This wine is distinguished by its specific terroir and the use of the "Silex" in its name refers to the unique soil composition on which the grapes grow.
The name "Silex" refers to the presence of flint-like pebbles (silex) in the soil of the vineyards. This flinty soil gives the wine a special character and contributes to the expression of the grapes.
The wine is made from the Chenin Blanc grape, which thrives in the calcareous soils of Vouvray and is known for its versatility. Chenin Blanc often shows seductive aromas of ripe fruit, such as pears, apples and peaches, in addition to floral and spicy nuances.
Domaine d'Orfeuilles Silex Vouvray is a high quality wine, with an excellent balance between fresh acidity and ripe fruit, enhanced by the unique minerality offered by the flinty soil.
