Virginie de Valandraud – 2018
Saint Emilion
, Grand Cru
France,
Bordeaux,
Inky bright purple colour. Pure and modern nose displaying finely toasted oak, spicy clove, pepper and liquorice notes paired with ripe blackberry, cherry and violet. The palate is ample and concentrated with fine extraction, plenty of finely grained tannin, nice mocha and spice flavours from the oak with exuberant dark fruit lingering on the palate, well-kept freshness gives a good lift and tension. Very long and pure finish, stylish and tempting.
