From Antonio Galloni's Vinous during en-primeur:
“The 2022 Clos Puy Arnaud is a real stunner, and one of the great under the radar gems on the Right Bank ... Clos Puy Arnaud could easily challenge many more illustrious names on the Right Bank”

From Jane Anson who picked this wine as her #1 Value of the Year:
"Once again this is proof of the quality of 2022, and it's a seriously impressive wine that offers wonderful value."

Clos Puy Arnaud is a 15.5-hectare vineyard located on a prized limestone plateau similar to Saint-Émilion terroirs.

The wine is made by Thierry Valette, owner and producer of the acclaimed organic and Biodynamic wine estate Clos Puy Arnaud in the Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux appellation. If the name “Valette” rings a bell, it should. Thierry comes from a four-generation winemaking family, he was a former co-owner of the renowned Château Pavie before purchasing Clos Puy Arnaud in 2000. The Valette family, also used to own Chateau Troplong Mondot.

Thierry Valette is a staunch advocate for biodynamic farming, having achieved certifications from both Biodyvin and Demeter. His wines are known for their freshness, minerality, complexity and energy.

"Tasted at the Palmères de Castillon event, where I was a jury member, and this was one of the wines picked out blind. I checked it against a different bottle at home later, and suggest that it is given at least half an hour in a carafe, as it remains fairly closed, but once again this is proof of the quality of 2022, and it's a seriously impressive wine that offers wonderful value. I'm always a fan of Clos Puy Arnaud, and you get the deft precision of the winemaking here, coupled with ripe blueberry and raspberry fruits, liquorice, black tea, pomegranate and slate-scrape tannins." - 95 Points Jane Anson

"The 2022 Clos Puy Arnaud is a dense, extroverted wine. Inky dark fruit, licorice, menthol and cloves are all amplified. Usually Clos Puy Arnaud is more refined, but in 2022, the vintage dominates and speaks loudly. Even so, this is a compelling offering. I look forward to tasting it with bottle age." - 94 Points Antonio Galloni's Vinous
