A Historic Family Estate with Timeless Expertise

Château Le Puy is one of Bordeaux’s most iconic estates, renowned for its natural approach and deep respect for terroir. Located on Bordeaux’s Right Bank, it has been owned by the Amoreau family since 1610, passing down a unique winemaking tradition for 15 generations. Through biodynamic farming and chemical-free vinification, the estate produces wines of remarkable purity and elegance.

An Exceptional Terroir on the Plateau des Merveilles

The vineyards of Château Le Puy lie on clay-limestone slopes at an altitude of 110 meters, a terroir known as the "plateau des merveilles" due to its outstanding soil quality. These conditions provide the wines with great finesse, distinctive minerality, and a perfect balance of structure and freshness. The vineyard is planted mainly with Merlot, complemented by Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Carménère, offering unique aromatic complexity.

Biodynamic and Sustainable Viticulture

A pioneer of biodynamics in Bordeaux, Château Le Puy works without chemical treatments, promoting biodiversity and true terroir expression. All grapes are hand-harvested with meticulous selection. In the cellar, fermentations occur with native yeasts, with little to no added sulfur. Aging takes place in old oak barrels, with no fining or filtration, resulting in living, vibrant wines.

Deep, Elegant, and Age-Worthy Wines

Château Le Puy’s wines are celebrated for their elegance and complexity. "Emilien," the estate’s signature cuvée, reveals delicate red fruit, spice, and dried flower aromas, with a silky texture and long finish. "Barthelemy," made without added sulfur, boasts remarkable depth and exceptional aging potential. Each vintage authentically reflects the richness of the terroir and the estate’s timeless style.

Château Le Puy, a Must-Know Name in Natural Bordeaux Wines

Through its dedication to pure, honest wines, Château Le Puy has become an icon of Bordeaux’s natural wine movement. Sought after by collectors and sommeliers worldwide, its cuvées demonstrate the true grandeur of unaltered wines. Tasting a wine from Château Le Puy is an invitation to experience a Bordeaux that is vibrant, authentic, and steeped in history.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Which Puy cuvée should I choose for a first introduction?

“Emilien” is a good starting point for exploring the selection: this cuvée is available in five vintages, from 2016 to 2022. For a first comparison with “Barthélemy,” choose a vintage shared by both cuvées: 2019, 2020, or 2022.

Which vintages allow me to compare “Emilien” and “Barthélemy” in the same format?

The 2019, 2020, and 2022 vintages are available as both “Emilien” and “Barthélemy” in 75 cl bottles. These pairs let you put together a tasting focused on the cuvées without changing the year or bottle size.

Which Puy wine should I choose for a tasting in both bottle and magnum formats?

“Emilien” 2020 is the only wine in the selection available both in a 75 cl bottle and a 150 cl magnum. It is therefore the right choice if you want to compare two formats of the same cuvée and vintage.

Which Puy wines should I choose to explore vintages before 2019?

The selection includes “Emilien” 2016 in a 75 cl bottle, as well as two 2018 wines: “Emilien” in a magnum and “Retour des Iles” in a 75 cl bottle. To compare the two 2018 wines, you will therefore need to account for the change in both cuvée and format.

Does the Merlot–Cabernet Sauvignon blend apply to all the Puy wines featured?

The Merlot–Cabernet Sauvignon blend is specified for four of the ten listings. The information provided does not make it possible to attribute it precisely to each wine or to generalize it to the entire selection.
