Critic reviews
"As usual, the 2023 Puygueraud, a blend of 90% Merlot, 9% Cabernet Franc and 1% Malbec, remains a sure bet for readers seeking well-executed Bordeaux wines. It exhibits aromas of mulberries, blueberries, spices and delicate oaky hints. Medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, it’s fleshy and seamless with a long, dense and mineral finish framed by licorice and spice hints."

"The 2023 Puygueraud is laced with dark red cherry, blood orange, plum, spice, dried herbs, mocha and licorice. It has good intensity but also dries out a bit on the close. This is the first vintage to include some Malbec in the blend. It will be interesting to see if this softens with élevage. Tasted four times."
Antonio Galloni, April 2024, Vinous.com
"Full of blackberry, black-olive and chocolate aromas and flavors on a medium to full body with lightly chewy tannins."
