Note di degustazione
The 2025 Clos Puy Arnaud feels a little late-picked on the nose, with a very slight acetic element. Revisited at a négociant tasting, thankfully this is not evident. The palate is very sweet, lacking energy and rather monotone on the finish. I actually preferred the previous vintage. A slipped catch?

Juicy cherries, cassis, graphite, and spring flowers all define the 2025 Clos Puy Arnaud Grand Vin, a medium-bodied Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux based on 50% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. It has a pure, focused mouthfeel on the palate, with fine tannins and integrated acidity. It has some oak, but it's beautifully integrated and polished.
Bright at its core with a juicy and well-balanced expression. Itâs medium-bodied with fine tannins. Supple and ripe with a pulpy finish.
The 2025 Clos Puy Arnaud is fabulous. Strong floral and savory top notes meld into dark red/purplish fruit, rose petal, mocha and spice. The two Cabernets are elevated in this year's blend, adding strong savory accents that are quite pronounced, but there's plenty of depth and richness to pull it all together.
