About This Wine

Château La Tuilerie du Puy

Estate Bordeaux Blend

Hailing from a Left Bank estate that has been in the same family in 1616, this Estate Bordeaux Blend is a classic representation of the wines of the region. Made up of 48% Cab Sauv, 40% Merlot, and 12% Cab Franc, this wine is savory and lush. Aromas of blue fruit and purple flowers come forward as the palate is coated in an intense robe of flavor. Add it to your cellar to enjoy in a few years or drink now and pair with savory dishes and bold cheeses.

Wine Region

Bordeaux

Probably the world's most famous wine region, Bordeaux is a true powerhouse of French quality. While Bordeaux is home to some of the country's most expensive bottles, it is also possible to find great-value wines from small producers. Almost all red and white wines from Bordeaux are blends. Reds tend to be a mix of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. But just as important as the blends are the quality of the region's terroir and unique winemaking techniques. The Bordeaux region is divided by the Gironde River into two main parts. Cabernet Sauvignon reigns supreme on the Left Bank, while Merlot dominates the Right Bank. White wines are usually a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon.
