Description
The range of Puy Arnaud wines is eclectic and creative. Its aim is to offer you wines for all occasions: fruit wines with friends, the good Bordeaux for the lunchtime brasserie, the lively and taut Rosé for the summer holidays and the Grand Vin for exceptional meals.
It has the ambition to be part of the redefinition of a Bordeaux style based on freshness, drinkability, fruit brightness and aromatic complexity, with finishes full of energy and persistence dominating the alcohol. All this with the silkiest and finest tannins possible, in search of racy and optimistic wines.
Annual production is around 60,000 bottles, 50% of which are Grand Vin.

Tasting
« There is a coiled energy here, as I often get with this estate, a real respect of the fruit. Touch hot, but a good mentol finish that brings it together.
