Domaine d'Orfeuilles' Vouvray Silex has ample stone-fruit flavors of peach and apricot, threads of honey, and earth. The name Silex refers to the flinty soil of the region that is responsible for the earthy, flinty flavors characteristic of this dry Vouvray. From the winery - “The grapes are pressed for 2 to 3 hours. After decanted, the juice is put for two third in tanks and the rest in oak barrels with 25 % of new wood. The spontaneous fermentation is followed by an ageing, stirring of the lees in barrels. His done during 11 months. The wine is bottled in September, after being racked two or three times and finely filtered.”
