Vintage 2023 | I tasted a range of rosé and decided to buy this Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence. Brought some bottles to my kids. ‘That rosé you brought, we liked it a lot’, said my son. The rosé has a lot of bitters, making it imo a eating wine. We drank it with pasta oyster mushrooms peperocine - a recipe from Sicilia. — 4 months ago

Le Vallon 2022. One hectare of 35 years old vines on calcareous soils. Exotic fruit and minerality go hand in hand. You can't go wrong with this producer. — a year ago

Chateau Valandraud is represented by the passion of a couple: Jean-Luc Thunevin and Murielle Andraud. Following the great success with the wine merchant business in Saint Emilion, they opened their own vineyard to produce their own wine.
In 1989, they bought a small parcel of 0.6 hectare (1.48 acres) located in a small valley near Saint Emilion between Pavie-Macquin and La Clotte. The origin of the wine name is as much geographic (Val: Vallon de Fongaban), as sentimental (Andraud: Murielle’s maiden name). Thus Chateau Valandraud was born.
Little by little, Jean-Luc and his wife purchased several other parcels of vines, and now, the domain represents a total surface of 10 hectares (24.71 acres), located in various areas of Saint Emilion. The diversity of soils and varietals permit the production of 6 different wines: Chateau Valandraud, Chateau Valandraud Casher, Virginie de Valandraud and the 3 de Valandraud (the second wine of Chateau Valandraud and Virginie de Valandraud), Blanc de Valandraud N° 1 and N° 2.
The final blending of the various parcels occurs in the month of March, following a blind tasting with the help of the world famous oenologist, Michel Rolland. — 2 years ago
