Château Valandraud Bordeaux Blanc Valandraud Blanc 2023

Fragrant and powerful white pepper, spiced pear, preserved lemons, fleshy white peach, structured and intense with a flash of heat. Good grip, a ton of impact and a white wine that will benefit from a few years of ageing. Valandraud has lower yields, and higher clay-limestone in the soils than 2nd wine Virginie de Valandraud, and is aged on the lees. It gives them distinct personalities, and this is the one for lovers of gourmet whites. Harvest September 8 to 18, 3.15ph, 80% new oak for ageing, 20% jarres.
