2023 Valandraud
Auslieferung bis zum Herbst 2026!
Delivery until Fall 2026!
Loved this En Primeur and it totally delivers in bottle. Rich and powerful, confident and well constructed, Clear smoke, creme de cassis and squid ink, crushed red roses, damsons and black cherries. So good. 100% new oak for ageing, Jean-Luc Thunevin owner at this 10.7ha estate (currently replanting several plots, so 6.6ha in production). 40hl/ha yield. One point upscore.
96/100 Jane Anson
The 2023 Valandraud has a deep garnet-purple color. It needs some patient swirling to bring out fragrant notes of star anise, Indian spices, cedar chest, and fragrant soil, giving way to a core of plum preserves and blackberry pie. Full-bodied, concentrated, and built like a brick house, it has firm, chewy tannins and bags of freshness, finishing very long and opulent. This will take some time to come around, yet should be a very long-lived Valandraud! The blend is 84% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc, and 8% Cabernet Sauvignon with a pH of 3.5. It is aging in 100% new oak barrels. The alcohol is 15%.
