Jeb Dunnuck (99)Cassis, mineral-laced blue fruits, chocolate, sappy herbs, and graphite all define the 2015 Château Valandraud, a full-bodied, pure, and focused Saint-Emilion that has remarkable purity and flat-out insanely gorgeous aromatics. On the palate, it's still incredibly concentrated and has a blockbuster style, yet it's starting to shed its baby fat and take on a more classic, composed character. This is an extraordinary wine that deserves several more years of cellaring and will drink beautifully over the following decades. Drink 2026-2055. |

Jeb Dunnuck (98+)Including 15% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, the Merlot-dominated 2016 Château Valandraud is a brilliant example of this cuvée that should match or exceed the incredible 2015 at maturity. Brought up all in new oak, its deep purple color is followed by a powerful bouquet of crème de cassis, graphite, smoked earth, and hints of earth. Possessing full-bodied richness, thrilling purity of fruit, ripe tannins, and just about perfect balance, it's another tour de force from the incredibly talented Jean-Luc Thunevin. It's slightly more elegant than the L'Interdit de Valandraud cuvée and will benefit from short-term cellaring and cruise for two decades or more. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (97+)The 2018 Valandraud is every bit as compelling as it was from barrel, maybe more. Power and vertical, with tons of explosive energy, the 2018 dazzles right out of the gate. Inky dark cherry, plum, chocolate, spice, new leather, licorice and chocolate all race across the palate. The 2018 is a wine of tremendous stature that distinguishes itself in a vintage peppered with stunning wines. I would allow for a few years in bottle to help the tannins soften. I loved it. |

Jane Anson Inside Bordeaux (96)One of the most successful wines of the vintage. Welcoming aromatics, carefully handled, creamy raspberry and blackberry fruits, gentle toasted pine nuts and cigar box smoke. You still get the lemongrass, slate tannins and acidites that are so signature to 2021, but also a sense of pull-and-push movement of the fleshy but fresh fruits through the palate, and hidden power. Good stuff. This is a vintage where you need the warm hug of a softly smoked oak barrel, and Thunevin knows how to administer it. 29hl/h yield, 3.5ph. |

Jeb Dunnuck (96)The 2021 Château Valandraud Blanc is brilliant stuff and offers a gorgeous perfume of honeyed limes, mint, spicy herbs, and just a kiss of background oak. With medium-bodied richness, a focused, chiseled texture, and a gorgeous finish, it does everything right. It has bright acidity and rock-solid concentration and will benefit from a year or three in the cellar and have a decade or more of longevity. |

Selected from the very best vineyard slopes of Côte Rôtie, the Vallouit Côte Rôtie Voniere 1999 is indeed the quintessence of traditional Rhône wine-making. The meticulous selection of Syrah grapes epitomises over a century of experience that Vallouit brings to the craft, reflecting the deep, loamy soil and moderate climate in the Rhône valley. What sets Vallouit apart, however, is their allegiance to vinification in old oak barrels, a technique that imparts woody, rustic notes and a profound complexity to the wine. This 1999 vintage encapsulates an enigmatic ruby-hued potion with blackcurrant and berry fringes, enriched by hints of smokey spice. Vallouit Côte Rôtie Voniere 1999 offers a highly concentrated palate, complementing the intense, fruit-forward nose and underscored by rounded, yet distinct, velvety tannins. It is a commanding bottle worthy of patience and contemplation- a testament to Vallouit's exceptional savoir-faire. |
