Bordeaux, France
Château le Puy
Château le Puy is a family-run farm in Bordeaux that has never used pesticides or chemicals — unusual for the region — going back to 1610. Barthélemy is their flagship red, made mostly from old Merlot vines. It's the wine that inspired a famous Japanese manga about wine.
