Château Clos Puy Arnaud - Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux - Red - 2015 :

 

Clos Puy Arnaud: Right Bank Sophistication from Castillon

The Clos Puy Arnaud is the flagship wine from a pioneering estate in the Castillon-Côtes de Bordeaux, run with a deep commitment to organic and biodynamic principles. Situated on a unique clay-limestone plateau, this 'Grand Vin' is a compelling expression of the Right Bank, delivering a style that balances the richness of Merlot with the freshness and structure of its exceptional terroir.

Tasting Notes: Structure, Spice, and Minerality

• Colour: Dense, deep purple-crimson.
• Nose: A magnificent, pure nose of concentrated juicy black fruit (blackberry, cassis) with complex layers of baking spice, violet, and a pronounced, earthy minerality that speaks of its limestone origins.
• Palate: Beautifully vibrant and succulent. The medium-full body is framed by deep, fine, and mature tannins, offering a velvety mouthfeel. Excellent acidity provides lift and freshness, culminating in a long, persistent, and almost chalky finish. This wine is both elegant and powerful.

Food Matching & Cellaring

An exceptional food wine, best served at cellar temperature (15.5°C) and decanted for an hour to allow its complex aromas to fully develop. A wine that will reward long-term cellaring.

• Suggested Pairings: Traditional Sunday Roast Lamb, Beef Wellington, Roast Game Pie with root vegetables, Mature Cheddar or Stilton.
