Having only been established in 1989, Jean-Luc Thunevin and Murielle Andraud have achieved an incredible amount in a short space of time with Château Valandraud, achieving St-Émilion Premier Grand Cru Classé (B) status and earning a reputation as one of the benchmark producers of the region. Though best known for their red wines, they also produce a small amount of white, blended from Sauvignon Gris, Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon matured in around 70% new oak. Excellent to drink whilst youthful, zippy and zesty, but it has the ability to develop nice complexity in the bottle.

The 2018 Valandraud Blanc still needs encouragement on the nose before it unveils its attractive scents of honeysuckle, broom, crushed rock/basalt and just a touch of apricot. The palate is well balanced with a lovely peach-tinged entry. This brims with energy, revealing orange zest and touches of quince toward the very poised finish. Utterly delicious from beginning to end. Neal Martin21st March 2021
