The 2013 Château Puygueraud is beautifully layered in the glass. Sweet tobacco, crushed flowers, dried cherries and cedar are all woven together in a wine that impresses for its persistence and overall balance. The finessed, silky tannins give the 2013 a sense of early approachability and pure, feminine appeal that is impossible to miss. The later harvest in the Côtes de Francs wes beneficial in 2013, but it was not unusually late for this site. In this vintage, there is less Cabernet Franc in the blend owing to the late season onset of botrytis. Overall production is down 50%.
Informazioni sul produttore
The Thienpont family bought Ch. Puygueraud in 1946, running it as a farm until the 1980s when Nicolas Thienpont moved the focus to viticulture, with the first vintage in 1983. Based in the Francs Côtes de Bordeaux, the property comprises 47 hectares of vines, both red and white.
