Description

France / Bordeaux / Saint-Émilion

In 1989, Jean-Luc Thunevin and Murielle Andraud became the proud owners of a small property of 0.6 ha, in the Saint-Émilion valley, between Château Pavie Macquin and Chateau La Clotte. In 1991 they produced and bottled their first vintage. In the early days, wine critics nicknamed the winery "garage wine" but already recognized it as a major player in Bordeaux. In 2012, Château Valandraud was classified as a Premiere Grand Cru Classé of Saint-Émilion. The secret of the high quality is an extreme yield restriction, only six grapes grow on a vine and every berry that does not meet the requirements of the winemaker couple is removed manually.
