Is Virginie de Valandraud Saint-Émilion Grand Cru a good wine?
What reviewers say
“On nose, wet cool forest floor clay lime stone prune plum fruit punch touch of vanilla and fresh laundry, on palate, bright underripe red cherry cranberry quickly switching to mushroom sage earthiness rubber and spicy finish.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Potentially one of the finest wines I have tasted from this estate, the 2010 offers up notes of crushed rocks, black raspberries and black currants intermixed with a hint of barrique. Medium to full-bodied and pure with a distinctive chocolate/coffee character, it should be enjoyed over the next 15+ years.
