In the mouth
Merlot dominates the blend, providing richness and a structured palate. The wine displays good weight and an elegant finish, with tannins that are present but well-integrated. The overall impression is one of balance and refinement.
On the nose
The bouquet reveals spiced notes alongside ripe red and dark fruit aromas. There is a pleasant aromatic complexity that suggests further development potential with time.
On the eye
Deep, dark ruby colour with good intensity and clarity
This wine pairs well with game, cured meats, and both white and red meat preparations. It complements mushroom-based dishes and green vegetables admirably. Soft and semi-hard cheeses are natural partners. Decanting one hour before service is recommended to allow the wine to open fully.
Nicolas françois, propriétaire passionné des halles de quercamps
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.
