Tasting notes

The Château Le Puy “Marie-Cécile” Vin de France Blanc 2024 is a dry white wine made from 100% Sémillon, crafted as a natural cuvée and vinified in used oak barrels according to the lunar calendar with no added sulphur. It shows a sparkling golden robe that can lean toward amber, with an expressive nose of ripe pear and lychee layered with delicate exotic flowers and bright blossoms. The palate is supple and remarkably weightless, offering a gentle, almost ethereal texture supported by a finely woven structure and soft mineral finesse. The finish is long, precise, and lifted by a persistent, elegant minerality.

More About The Winery

Owned by the Amoreau family since 1610, Le Puy overlooks the Dordogne valley on the same geological plateau as Saint-Emilion and Pomerol, once called the ‘Plateau of Wonders’. Le Puy was originally built at the beginning of the 17th century and later extended in 1832 by Barthélémy Amoreau. 

There are 35 hectares of vines spread over three plots with soils made of clay, limestone and silica. It’s quite common to find some sharpened flints between the vines as some parts used to be battlefields in medieval times. The soil type varies but is principally a mix of clay, silex and limestone, with very high acidity levels. 

The average age of the vines is 50 years and no synthetic treatments have ever been used at the estate, which is certified biodynamic. Harvest is manual, the grapes are entirely destemmed and the cuvaison is long, continuing for two to four weeks. The “elevage” of the Le Puy wines is done according to the lunar rhythm. The wines are neither fine nor filtered before bottling. Jean-Pierre Amoreau and his son, Pascal, oversee the vineyards and vinification.
