The Amoreau family has been producing wine at Chateau le Puy since 1610, in the North-East of the Gironde region. If you exclude the grands crus classés wines, Château le Puy is one of the most sought-after estate in Bordeaux, since it follows the biodynamic principles, the aging is never conducted in new oak, and the wines are great either young of after a few years in the cellar. But most and foremost, it has been depicted in the famous anime "The Drops Of God"as being "the best wine in the world"! After 2017, the Amoreau fmily stopped producing wine under the appellation "Francs-Côtes-de-Bordeaux" and now only produce under the Vin de France category, before, perhaps, one day, an AOC "Le Puy"...
This cuvée comes from a single vineyard and is a blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon. The production follows strict rules with no new oak, indigenous yeats, no filtration, for the whole 24 months before bottling. Gorgeous aromas of rose and red berries, with a soft and velvety texture pleasant to discover in its youth, but forgetting it in the cellar for a few years would be a great idea.
