The Amoreau family has been cultivating their vineyard since 1610, located on a rocky plateau similar to that of Saint-Émilion and Pomerol. The vines, about fifty years old, are grown using biodynamic methods, giving the estate a distinct uniqueness among Bordeaux wines.

Their wines are refined and delicate, made from grapes harvested at full maturity. While they are enjoyable to drink young due to the supple tannins, they also have the potential to age gracefully, reaching thirty years or more in exceptional vintages. For lovers of rounded, velvety, complex, and natural Bordeaux wines, Château le Puy will surely delight you for a long time.
