Château le Puy is an anomaly. In a region known for big wines, big châteaux, and big bank rolls, here you have a winery that harkens back to a bygone era. Located on the “Right Bank” of Bordeaux on the same plateau as Saint Emilion and Pomerol, Jean-Pierre Amoreau and his son, Pascal make wine in a fashion that proceeds conventional winemaking. Le Puy was “natural” decades before anybody knew such a thing existed. As Jean-Pierre says, “My grandfather was too stingy to buy chemicals”. Today four horses are used to plow their 125 acres of wines. In the cellar indigenous yeast is used for fermentation, very little sulphur is added, and ageing is done in old oak barrels.

"Rose-Marie" is a saignee of Merlot from the iconic "Barthelemy" cuvee (produced from their highest-altitude and poorest-soiled site), aged in old demi-muids and dynamized (wherein the lees are painstakingly stirred into the wine according to the lunar cycle, thereby fortifying it against oxidation) for eight months with no additions whatsoever; it is bottled without clarification, filtration, or added sulfur. Rose-Marie pours a deeply bejeweled hue and offers startlingly vivid fruit and incredible complexity on the palate. Le Puy produces but a few hundred six-packs each vintage.
