Merchant's description

Clos Puy Arnaud is an organic and biodynamic wine estate situated in the AOC Castillon-Côtes de Bordeaux. This is the 2005 vintage of its flagship wine, which is a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine is packed with complex notes of black fruits, blackberry liqueur, marmalade, crème brûlée, vanilla beans and mineral undertones. An impressive effort.
