”chateau puygueraud is produced mainly from merlot with however a proportion of cabernet that is quite high for the region as well as a touch of malbec with its peppery character. In 2005 all the cabernet sauvignon was pulled up and cabernet franc was planted in its place. This variety ripens earlier and is better suited to the terroir of the cotes de francs. The cuvee george is produced in small quantities and without being a prestige cuvee is a nod to george thienpont who appreciated cabernets and malbec. Unusually it is a blend of 35% malbec 35% cabernet franc 20% merlot and 10% cabernet sauvignon thus giving it great individuality of expression at a time when many wines seem to becoming more and more similar in style. Chateau lauriol is principally the second wine of chateau puygueraud made from the younger vines on the property.” – chateau puygueraud
