Silenes 2022

15,50€

    A fruity wine par excellence, Silènes reveals a juicy, easily digestible Cabernet Franc. From sandy and gravelly terroirs, this vintage offers crisp red fruit aromas and a fresh finish. An accessible Chinon that expresses the greed of the grape variety.

        Vin de Jeune Garde, Fruité
        Red Wine - AOP Chinon
        Organic Farming
        Cabernet Franc - 13.5% vol.

        A great vintage for Chinon. A dry summer followed by a wet September, the opposite of conditions in 2021. No spring frost and dry air prevented disease development. High-quality wines combining concentration and mineral freshness. Exceptional ageing potential.

        The Silenes

        A wine of pleasure born on the siliceous plateau of Beaumont-en-Véron, Silènes combines deliciousness and bright fruit.

        From vine to cellar

        Ten hectares of vines planted in 1988 on the siliceous plateau of Beaumont-en-Véron, located between the Loire and Vienne rivers, make up the estate's most homogenous plot. Average yield: 45 hl/ha. A blend of Beaumont vines and, depending on the vintage, free-run and press wines from alluvial terroirs on the left bank, creating an original harmony of aroma and substance. The grapes are destemmed without bursting, undergo cold skin maceration for 5 days, and undergo rapid fermentation at a maximum temperature of 25°C for 10 days, sometimes interrupted before the sugars are completely transformed. Malolactic fermentation in vats, followed by natural winter cooling. A highly aromatic, gourmet wine with well-balanced tannins.
