The Amoreau family has been making wine at Château le Puy since 1610 - longer than there's been a city of Boston, since before the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock and before the first Thanksgiving. Located on the highest point in the Bordeaux Côtes-de-Francs AOC it sits strategically above the Dordogne River and atop the "Coteau des Merveilles ", the same rocky plateau which forms the soils of Pommerol and Saint-Emilion.

However Jean-Pierre Amoreau and his son Pascal (14th and 15th generations at Le Puy) aren't content to mimique those appellations to their east insisting that theirs has always been a singular terroir.
