Didier Dagueneau
View Full Description [+ Read More]
Didier Dagueneau is a winery based in Saint-Andelain within the Pouilly-Fumé appellation of France's Loire Valley, producing exclusively Sauvignon Blanc from plots defined by distinct soil compositions. The estate's flagship Silex takes its name from the flint-rich soils of its vineyard, while Pur Sang, meaning pure blood, draws from pure silex parcels and undergoes fermentation in small oak barrels. Blanc etc... (Blanc Fumé de Pouilly) represents the entry point into the Dagueneau range, sourced from younger vines across the appellation. Beyond the Loire, the domaine also produces Les Jardins de Babylone from Petit Manseng in Jurançon, available in Sec, Demi Sec, and Moelleux expressions, with the Moelleux representing the richest and most concentrated style in the range.
