CHATEAU VALANDRAUD, 2020

495,00

Neprozirne ljubičasto-crne boje, Valandraud iz 2020. pršti mirisima zgnječenih crnih šljiva, bobica i kupina, praćenih naznakama prašnjave zemlje, garriguea i ulja klinčića. Srednjeg do punog okusa pruža puno energičnog, hrskavog crnog voća sa živahnom kičmom i prekrasno zrelim, zaobljenim taninima, dugog i mirisnog završetka.

Opaque purple-black colored, the 2020 Valandraud bursts with scents of crushed black plums, boysenberries and blackberry preserves, followed by hints of dusty soil, garrigue and clove oil. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers a lot of energetic, crunchy black fruits with a lively backbone and beautifully ripe, rounded tannins, finishing long and fragrant.

REGIJA / REGION

Bordeaux je vinska regija smještena u jugozapadnoj Francuskoj te je domovina najpoznatijih svjetskih vinara. Ima stoljetnu tradiciju, a u vinima Bordeaux-a uživali su i stari Rimljani. Oko grada Bordeaux-a se nalazi 14 000 proizvođača vina te 117 514 hektara vinograda.

Regija je u blizini rijeke Gironde te Atlantskog oceana zbog čega ima morsku klimu. Ocean i rijeka donose blagu zimu i topla ljeta te duge sunčane jeseni. Regija je zaštićena od oceanskih snažnih vjetrova sa gustom borovom šumom koja se proteže paralelno uz regiju. Zbog rijeke i oceana regija ima vapnenačko tlo sa glinom i pijeskom što je izuzetno pogodno tlo za uzgoj vinove loze.

Bordeaux je najpoznatiji po crvenim vinima te plemenitim slatkim vinima, no ne zaostaju ni visokokvalitetna bijela vina. Bordeaux crvena vina imaju jedinstveni izražaj regije koji je prepoznatljiv u cijelom svijetu. Najčešće crne sorte koja se uzgajaju su Cabernet sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet franc, Petit Verdot, Malbec. Najčešće bijele sorte su Sauvignon blanc, Semilion i Muscadelle. Klasifikacija bordoških vina počela je 1855. godine. Bordoški vinogradi podjeljeni su na pet regija; Entre-Deux-Mers, Libournais, Bourgeais-Blayais, Gravec i Medoc.

 

Bordeaux is a wine region located in southwestern France and is home to the world’s most famous winemakers. It has a century-old tradition, and the wines of Bordeaux were enjoyed by the ancient Romans. There are 14,000 wine producers and 117,514 hectares of vineyards around the city of Bordeaux.

The region is close to the Gironde River and the Atlantic Ocean, which is why it has a maritime climate. The ocean and river bring mild winters and warm summers and long sunny autumns. The region is protected from strong ocean winds with a dense pine forest that runs parallel to the region. Due to the river and ocean, the region has calcareous soil with clay and sand, which is an extremely suitable soil for growing vines.

Bordeaux is best known for its red wines and noble sweet wines, but high-quality white wines are not far behind. Bordeaux red wines have a unique expression of the region that is recognizable all over the world. The most common black varieties that are grown are Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Malbec. The most common white varieties are Sauvignon blanc, Semilion and Muscadelle. The classification of Bordeaux wines began in 1855. The Bordeaux vineyards are divided into five regions; Entre-Deux-Mers, Libournais, Bourgeais-Blayais, Gravec and Medoc.

O VINARIJI / ABOUT THE WINERY

O VINARIJI / ABOUT THE WINERY

Château Valandraud ima, u najmanju ruku, neobičnu povijest. To je Domaine koji su od nule izgradili samouki osnivač Jean-Luc Thunevin, bivši bankar i trgovac u Saint-Emilionu, i njegova supruga Murielle Andraud, sa strašću i odlučnošću. Želeći proizvoditi vino po vlastitoj zamisli, kupili su parcelu od 0,6 hektara u dolini Fongaban u Saint-Emilionu. Ime Domaine tako će biti inspirirano zemljopisnim položajem, “Val”, zajedno s Murielinim prezimenom, “andraud”.

Puštanje njihove prve berbe 1991. godine bilo je uspješno. Nakon što su ga u potpunosti vinificirali u maloj prostoriji zanatskih bačvi postavljenoj u njihovoj garaži, oni će biti u podrijetlu izraza “Garage Wine”. Danas je Domaine dosegao veličinu od 8,8 hektara, vina rođena iz saveza između tradicije, modernosti i inovacije. Nova najsuvremenija poluukopana vinarija, savršeno uklopljena u krajolik vinograda, zapravo će ugledati svjetlo dana za berbu 2021. godine.

Château Valandraud je promoviran u Premier Grand Cru Classé na 6. izdanju klasifikacije Saint-Emilion 2012., okrunjujući napore koje su uložili vlasnici u njihovoj pravoj vrijednosti.

Château Valandraud ima vinograd od 8,8 hektara zasađen na glineno-vapnenačkom tlu, a sorta grožđa je 65% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon i 5% Malbec. Vina odležavaju od 18 do 30 mjeseci u 100% novim bačvama.

Drugo vino Châteaua nazvano je po kćeri vlasnika Virginie de Valandraud.

Château Valandraud nudi koncentrirana, baršunasta vina velike svježine. Kao i njegova povijest, nude jedinstvenu osobnost u svijetu velikog Bordeauxa.

 

The Château Valandraud has an unusual history, to say the least. It is a Domaine that was built from scratch by its self-taught founder Jean-Luc Thunevin, a former banker and merchant in Saint-Emilion, and his wife Murielle Andraud, with passion and determination. Wanting to make wine according to their own ideas, they bought a 0.6 hectare plot in the Fongaban valley of Saint-Emilion. The name of Domaine will thus be inspired by its geographical location, “Val”, coupled with Muriel’s family name, “andraud”.

The release of their first vintage in 1991 will be a success. Having entirely vinified it in a small artisanal vat room set up in their garage, they will be at the origin of the expression “Garage Wine”. Today, Domaine has reached a size of 8.8 hectares, the wines born from the alliance between tradition, modernity and innovation. A new state-of-the-art semi-buried vat house, perfectly integrated into the vineyard landscape, will in fact see the light of day for the 2021 harvest.

The Château Valandraud will be promoted to Premier Grand Cru Classé at the 6th edition of the Saint-Emilion classification in 2012, crowning the efforts undertaken by the owners at their true value.

The Château Valandraud watches over an 8.8-hectare vineyard planted on clay-limestone soils, and the grape variety is 65% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Malbec. The wines are aged from 18 to 30 months in 100% new barrels.

The Second wine of Château is named after the owners’ daughter, Virginie de Valandraud.

The Château Valandraud offers concentrated, velvety wines with great freshness. Like its history, they offer a unique personality in the world of the great Bordeaux.
