An essential cuvee from the Château le Puy estate, operated by the Amoreau family since 1610, Emilien is a delicate and refined Merlot blend. A fruity nose with ripe redcurrant and damp leaves lead way into a round, full palate that finishes with fine, velvety tannins. Composed of 85% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 1% Carmenère, the grapes age together for 2 years in used French oak barrels. A sophisticated wine that can be drunk now, or aged to discover the full depth of its terroir, we’d enjoy this with a roast prime rib or seared maitake mushrooms over herbed mashed potatoes.
