Silex is a single vineyard wine, aged in jars for 2 to 3 years. It comes from the "Les Trois Coins" plot, with a very stony Jurassic soil.

This Saumur Puy-Notre-Dame is a deep and intense wine, with aromas of ripe black fruits, spices, licorice and a slight menthol note.

Balance and consistency in the mouth, with high quality tannins that are both solid and melted, and great length.
