A Premier Grand Cru Classé at the Peak of Saint-Émilion

The rise of a bold and visionary estate

Château Valandraud is a remarkable success story in Bordeaux’s prestigious Saint-Émilion region. Founded in 1989 by Jean-Luc Thunevin and Murielle Andraud, the estate quickly gained recognition for its innovative approach and exceptional quality. In 2012, it was elevated to Premier Grand Cru Classé status—an outstanding achievement in such a short time.

Located in the Fongaban valley between Pavie-Macquin and La Clotte, Valandraud covers 8.88 hectares of premium vineyard plots. The soils, slope, and microclimate offer perfect conditions for slow, optimal grape ripening. The vineyard’s varietal makeup includes 65% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Malbec, and 1% Carmenère—each contributing to the wine’s structure, finesse, and aromatic complexity.

Winemaking is precise and tailored: grapes are hand-picked, fermented in stainless steel and wooden vats, with gentle extractions and long aging in new French oak barrels. Every detail is controlled to produce a wine that reflects the character of its terroir and the vision of its creators.

2016: A stellar vintage praised by critics

Château Valandraud 2016 is one of the finest vintages ever produced by the estate. The growing season offered perfect conditions, allowing for grapes with full ripeness and balanced acidity—ideal for crafting a wine with depth and longevity.

Color: Deep garnet with dark violet hues. Nose: Complex and intense, offering blackberries, cassis, licorice, spices, and hints of oak. Palate: Rich and velvety, with silky tannins and a vibrant, persistent finish. The balance between power and finesse makes it a benchmark for modern Saint-Émilion wines.

This is a cellar-worthy wine with aging potential of 20 to 30 years. To fully appreciate its aromatic complexity, decant 1 to 2 hours before serving at 17°C. Available on 12bouteilles, it is a must-have for lovers of top-tier Bordeaux.
