Chateau le Puy, Emilien, Francs Cotes de Bordeaux 2020 (6x750ml)

Description

Exemplifies the finesse and complexity of its terroir. Comprising 85% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 6% Cabernet Franc, the wine is aged for two years in foudres and Bordeaux barriques, resulting in a harmonious and well-integrated profile. On the nose, it reveals enticing aromas of dark cherry, black currant, and cedar, accompanied by subtle earthy notes of fresh mushrooms. The palate is full-bodied and savory, showcasing concentrated flavors of dark fruits, complemented by hints of spice and a touch of minerality. Firm tannins and vibrant acidity provide structure and balance, leading to a long, elegant finish. This wine is crafted with minimal intervention, adhering to biodynamic principles, and is bottled unfined and unfiltered, preserving its authentic character. Approachable now, it also possesses the potential to age gracefully over the next decade, further enhancing its depth and complexity. Pair this wine with hearty dishes such as beef bourguignon, grilled steak with wild mushrooms, or a stuffed veal roast to fully appreciate its rich flavors and refined structure.
