The Story

The Pueyos follow traditional vinification techniques. 25% new barrels and 25% one-year-old barrels are used each year, to avoid overwhelming the fruit; the other half of the cuvée is aged in cement tanks. The composition of this most prestigious wine of the cellar is generally 60% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine is marked by a richly spicy nose with hints of tobacco and coffee in the background; the flavors are dominated by red currant, cassis, and raspberry; the texture is silky and the wine is smooth and generous on the palate; the subtle tannins have grip but are graceful making this wine particularly welcoming over the near term.

About Ch Belregard Figeac

Brand Story

Christophe Pueyo, the family’s 5th generation took control of the domaine from his father and uncle in 2010, and has since converted the estate to organic viticulture and replaced many of the barriques with demi-muids and foudres (and the occasional amphora). The domaine controls just 16 ha of vines the Bordeaux AOC, with 7.2 ha within the Saint Émilion AOC, and a further 1.5 ha planted to white grapes. The estate produces wines labelled Tellus Vinea, Château Belregard-Figeac, La Fleur Garderose, and Héllebore, Galipette, Achillea and Orchis.
