Château Puy Guilhem

Fronsac

2020

TASTING NOTE

Château Puy Guilhem 2020 is so delicate that you seem to see the grains of crisp cherries and red plums through the wine. Swirling the glass, you could even feel the aroma of orchids. Surprisingly, in the dry and hot vintage of 2020, the acidity is similar to that of the 2019 vintage. With creamy tannins and the classic saltiness and minerality in the length, this wine manifests the potential of a good Fronsac wine.
