Pouilly-Fumé Silex Dagueneau 2018 is a Sauvignon Blanc from the Pouilly-Fumé appellation in the Loire Valley. Thanks in large part to the late Didier, the Dagueneau family is an iconic Loire producers, celebrated for its uncompromising approach to crafting profound, terroir-driven wines. The wine is sourced from a specific vineyard defined by its hard silex soils. This magnum bottling presents a complex bouquet of ripe citrus, white flowers and gunpowder, with a distinct mineral essence. The palate is full-bodied and textured, with a firm, energetic acidity and a long, chiselled finish.

Perhaps the most famous of the Dagueneau cuvées, the 2018 Silex is flowing and accessible on entry, but then it coils and tightens. The silex (flint) soil gives firmness, imbuing structure and steely tension. Power and concentration combine, providing an almost waxy texture on the finish. Flavors of spiced apples, almonds and pastry linger. It's just not quite as long as expected. Tasted over three days.Rebecca Gibb1st August 2021
