  • Antonio Galloni, January 2025, Score: 94

    The 2022 Valandraud Blanc is terrific. Dried pear, white flowers, mint and a hint of spice open first. Creamy and resonant on the palate, the Blanc is a gorgeous white for the dinner table. A few years in bottle will allow its textural breadth to emerge more fully. Readers should expect a decidedly rich, heady wine.

    Excellent quality, delivers length and complexity with an opulent edge that gives estate signature. Baked apple, creamy citrus, fragrant mint leaf, fennel, saffron, white tea and star anise alongside juicy nectarine and peach pit.

Region

St Emilion

South of Pomerol lies the medieval, perched village of St Emilion. Surrounding St Emilion are vines that produce round, rich and often hedonistic wines. Despite a myriad of soil types, two main ones dominate - the gravelly, limestone slopes that delve down to the valley from the plateau and the valley itself which is comprised of limestone, gravel, clay and sand. Despite St Emilion's popularity today, it was not until the 1980s to early 1990s that attention was brought to this region. Robert Parker, the famous wine critic, began reviewing their Merlot-dominated wines and giving them hefty scores. The rest is history as they say. Similar to the Médoc, there is a classification system in place which dates from 1955 and outlines several levels of quality. These include its regional appellation of St Emilion, St Emilion Grand Cru, St Emilion Grand Cru Classé and St Emilion Premier Grand Cru Classé, which is further divided into "A" (Ausone and Cheval Blanc) and "B" (including Angélus, Canon, Figeac and a handful of others). To ensure better accuracy, the classification is redone every 10 years enabling certain châteaux to be upgraded or downgraded depending on on the quality of their more recent vintages.
