In the mouth
The palate is clean and linear, with a Merlot-dominant blend providing richness without heaviness. Spice notes persist through the mid-palate, leading to a composed, well-balanced finish with fine-grained tannins.
On the nose
Aromas of ripe dark fruits with a distinctive spice character. The bouquet develops with air, revealing subtle earth notes and a hint of liquorice beneath the primary fruit.
On the eye
Deep, dark garnet robe with good intensity
A versatile food wine. Pair with game, charcuterie, or roasted poultry. Red and white meats alike benefit from its structure. Mushrooms and green vegetables complement it well. Soft and hard cheeses are equally suitable partners. Decant 30 minutes before service to allow the bouquet to develop fully.

CHATEAU PUYGUERAUD
Perched on the plateau of Francs in the Gironde at 117 metres altitude, Château Puygueraud covers 47 hectares of argilo-calcaire soils within the Francs-Côtes de Bordeaux appellation. George Thienpont acquired the estate in 1946; his son Nicolas took the helm in 1983, followed by grandson Cyrille from 2009 — three generations of consistent, unhurried viticulture. The reds, built on Merlot and Cabernet Franc, show real precision and typicity, while whites from Sauvignon Blanc and Sauvignon Gris add a welcome dimension to the range. At Halles Quercamps, we selected this château for the coherence of its winemaking vision, the authenticity of its terroir, and its reliability across successive vintages — a sound reference for exploring the Côtes de Bordeaux beyond the better-known appellations.
