Silex is the estate’s flagship cuvée, produced from the purest flint soils around Saint-Andelain. This wine impresses with its depth, precision, and mineral tension. The nose evokes candied citrus, exotic fruits, floral notes, and an intense smoky touch. On the palate, the texture is straightforward, powerful, and chiseled, with an exceptionally long finish. This is a wine with great ageing potential, capable of evolving for 20 years or more. Its aromatic purity and structure make it a great white wine for gastronomy. It pairs well with noble dishes such as turbot, lobster, or truffled dishes. An absolute benchmark for Sauvignon Blanc.

Domaine Didier Dagueneau – The Sauvignon Blanc Elite
Nestled in Saint-Andelain, this family estate is a Pouilly-Fumé legend. A visionary and perfectionist, Didier Dagueneau elevated Sauvignon Blanc to the heights of purity and expression. Since 2008, his son Louis-Benjamin has continued the legacy with an equally precise and bold style.

Each plot is vinified separately, yields are low, and aging is done in custom-made barrels. The flint terroir gives the wines a sharp minerality and incredible longevity. Cuvées such as “Silex,” “Pur Sang,” and “Buisson Renard” have achieved cult status.

The estate’s wines combine intensity, finesse, and energy, and are among the greatest dry whites in the world. A true signature of the terroir, born from exceptionally demanding craftsmanship.
