Château Puygueraud

In 1946, George and Monica Thienpont, coming from their natal Flanders, moved into Puygueraud, restored the XVth Century château.

After a long pause in polyculture, undertook the reconstruction of the vineyard whereby the first vintage would see the day in 1983.

In 1981, Nicolas Thienpont, with his father, engaged in the transition between a production oriented viticulture to one of excellence.

Since 1983, the first vintage year mark, this approach has continued.

Since 2009, Nicolas and his son Cyrille Thienpont, have worked hand-in-hand for the crafting of this wine that over the last 30 years has become the flagship of the Francs Côtes-de-Bordeaux appellation and a veritable jewel of Bordeaux.

 

The vineyard of Puygueraud is located on a rocky plateau that overlooks the magnificent Dordogne valley, in a continuum until Saint-Emilion.

The 42 hectares of black grapes and 5 hectares of white grapes of the property, today sub-divided into 67 parcels, resting on clay and limestone soils and limestone with asterias, marl and clay subsoils.

Today 80% of the vineyard is planted in Merlot, 15% in Cabernet Franc and 5% in Malbec, the latter a grape variety dear to the founding father, George Thienpont. The whites are composed of Sauvignon Blanc and Sauvignon Gris.
