Black cherries, flowers, plums, and cocoa create the nose. On the palate, the wine is elegant, supple, fresh, and polished. The fruits are ripe, sweet and energetic, with a touch of cocoa, and chalk in the finish. Drink from 2025-2035. 91-93 Pts. 3,725 Views Tasted May 8, 2023 |

Valandraud 3 de Valandraud (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
Valandraud 3 de Valandruad While the name 3 de Valandruad implies this is the third wine of Valandraud, it’s actually the second wine of Valandraud. The name comes from an inside joke of Jean Luc Thunevin. Ripe dark berries, licorice, supple textures, sweet black raspberry and an anise filled finish are the signatures of this wine. 89-91 Pts 5,029 Views Tasted Apr 22, 2011 |
