Chateau Le Puy Bordeaux 'Barthelemy' Red 2011 750ml

The 2011 Barthélémy is a distinguished red wine from the Côtes de Bordeaux – Francs region, crafted by Château Le Puy. This vintage showcases the estate's commitment to quality, offering a wine that is both elegant and expressive.

The blend is dominated by Merlot, complemented by Cabernet Sauvignon and a touch of Carmenère. Aged for 24 months in oak barrels, the wine presents a deep, rich ruby color. The nose reveals aromas of ripe blackberries, cassis, and plums, intertwined with earthy notes of truffle, leather, and subtle hints of spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied with a harmonious balance between fruit, tannins, and acidity. The finish is long and persistent, with lingering notes of dark fruit and a touch of oak.

This wine is ready to enjoy now but also has the structure to age gracefully over the next decade.
