‘Les Ormeaux’ offers a fresh and linear take on Castillon, with the sleek minerality of its limestone terroir shining through. Lively notes of black raspberry and red plum are delicately balanced with cedar and wintergreen, while a medium body and stony texture lead to a persistent finish, ending with a peppery kick. This unique claret is a superb match for spiced lamb, game, or hearty vegetable dishes.

Clos Puy Arnaud, under the stewardship of Thierry Valette, brings a biodynamic approach to winemaking in the Castillon-Ctes de Bordeaux. Nestled on the Saint-milion ridge, the estate’s limestone-rich soils give its wines a distinctive freshness. The 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc blend is crafted with care, using natural fermentation and aged in cement vats and barrels to maintain the purity of the terroir, delivering an expressive and natural wine.
