This refined red wine comes from the Côtes de Franc, which is a blend of 85% Merlot, 15% Cabernet-Sauvignon. This is the top wine of Chateau Le Puy. Unlike other Bordeaux wines, they do not first make separate wines and then blend them into a unique cuvee. No. They pick everything together and then prepare the wine completely together. This, say extremely rare method, results in a more complex texture, with different flavors that come from the different yeasts, grapes and plots.
