Monday, December 4, 2023 - Valandrau vertical (1991-2020) (Fribourg): Selected tasting notes from a complete Valandraud vertical (1991-2020) hosted by a collector with an estate representative. Main observation was that both the work the estate did during the transition phase 2000-2012 is clearly bearing fruit in more recent vintages, further helped by warmer growing seasons that are favorable for this cool site in St Emillon. Additional comments included in the tasting story.

Tasting note:
Aging notes o leather, barnyard and a liquoresque fruit. Mineral notes of lead. A dense, ripe and almost viscous palate, sweet and almost chewy. Firm structure and in good balance, too.
