Barthelemy - 2001

Château Le Puy

Barthélemy 2001 from Château Le Puy, crafted by Jean-Pierre Amoreau, is an exceptional single-plot cuvée sourced from the estate's oldest vines. Farmed biodynamically, without any synthetic products, this wine embodies the very essence of the terroir in a pure and unadorned expression.

Vinified without inputs, using indigenous yeasts, this wine benefits from a long aging process that gives it depth and complexity. The 2001 vintage is distinguished by its balance and finesse, offering a precise and nuanced interpretation.

The deep and elegant color announces a wine of character. The nose is intense, revealing aromas of black fruits, leather, tobacco, and spices, with a mineral touch. On the palate, the structure is dense but perfectly controlled, with present but silky tannins. The length is remarkable, leaving a persistent and noble impression.

This wine pairs ideally with rich dishes, meats in sauce, or game. A cuvée with great aging potential, rare and sought after, it will appeal to discerning connoisseurs.
