The 2015 Puygueraud Blanc is crisp, dry and wonderfully refreshing. Citrus peel, white flowers and bright, saline notes give this Sauvignon Blanc/Sauvignon Gris striking energy and vibrancy. Drink it over the next few years.

The 2015 Puygueraud Blanc is laced with the essence of lemon confit, apricot, chamomile and almond. Although the 2015 was just bottled, it shows very nicely today. Drink this delicious, refreshing white from Nicolas Thienpont over the next few years.
A bright and intense white with dried lemon, stone, salt and grapefruit character. Full body, phenolic tension. Flavorful finish. Very minerally. 60% Sauvignon blanc and 40% Semillon. Apr 2016, www.JamesSuckling.com

About the producer

The Thienpont family bought Ch. Puygueraud in 1946, running it as a farm until the 1980s when Nicolas Thienpont moved the focus to viticulture, with the first vintage in 1983. Based in the Francs Côtes de Bordeaux, the property comprises 47 hectares of vines, both red and white.
