The 2019 Valandraud has a generous and oaky bouquet with blueberry and blackberry commingling with vanillary scents. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, velvety smooth in texture lending it a modern sheen, overtly oaky although I feel there is sufficient fruit behind it. This is defined by the winemaking rather than the terroir at the moment but it will come through with time. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting. - Neil Martin
Château Valandraud was established in 1991 by wine lovers Jean-Luc Thunevin and Murielle Andraud and is situated in Saint-Émilion. The 2019 vintage is an elegant, Merlot-dominant Bordeaux blend that has met with great critical acclaim. The vintage was reviewed by the Wine Enthusiast as follows, "This is a dense and luscious wine, the best yet from this estate. Its great structure and tannins show a style that is powerful but all within. This is a magnificent vintage from this Premier Grand Cru Classé estate, and fully deserves to be aged for many years."
