The Story

Château Le Puy Rose-Marie comes from Merlot vines planted in red clay, silt and limestone soils and lying 110 metres above sea level. These are 50-year-old vines grown without chemical fertilisers, herbicides or insecticides, and using biodynamic treatments instead. Once the grapes reach optimum ripeness, they are manually selected in the vineyard.
This 100% Merlot wine is obtained by running off juice from one of the vats during the fermentation process, a practice known as “la saignée”. The juice is then fermented in barrells for 6-10 months, with no added substances. The rosé is then bottled without filtering and without sulfites, leaving us with a perfectly natural wine. The nose is fresh and floral, with red fruit aromas alongside notes of peonies and white flowers. On the palate Rose-Marie is light and playful, with tannins so light they are barely detectable. only 200 cases produced.

About Ch Le Puy

Brand Story

Set on the same rocky plateau as Saint-Emilion and Pomerol, overlooking the magnificent Dordogne valley, the area was formerly nicknamed ‘Miracle Hills’ on account of the superb wines produced here. The vineyard of Château le Puy is the second-highest point in the Gironde department. The bulk of the current Château was built in 1832 by our ancestor Barthélemy Amoreau, but the oldest sections date from the early seventeenth century.
