In the mouth
The palate is structured and elegant, with Merlot providing richness and body. Tannins are refined rather than aggressive, leading to a clean, well-balanced finish that suggests rewarding cellaring.
On the nose
Ripe dark fruit aromas interwoven with warm spice notes. The bouquet develops with aeration, revealing layers of black cherry and subtle oak influence from careful élevage.
On the eye
Deep, dark garnet robe with good intensity
This Côtes de Bordeaux demonstrates versatility at table. Pair with venison, duck, or rabbit; red and white meats; sautéed mushrooms and green vegetables; or mature cheeses. The wine's balance makes it equally at home with a simple country terrine or more elaborate game preparations. Cellaring for 3–5 years will allow the structure to integrate 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.
