On the nose
Ripe dark fruits mingle with spice and liquorice. Toasted and vanilla notes from careful barrel ageing add further dimension and refinement to the bouquet.
In the mouth
Rich, deep and layered. The wine unfolds with considerable complexity, its tannins well-integrated and its finish persistent. A wine of substance and elegance.
This is a wine of considerable merit alongside roasted game birds and their seasonal vegetables. The structure and concentration will complement dishes of similar weight and intensity. Consider also aged cheeses and slow-cooked beef preparations that allow the wine's complexity to shine.

CHATEAU VALANDRAUD
Situated in Saint-Étienne-de-Lisse in the Gironde, Château Valandraud is a Premier Grand Cru Classé B of the Saint-Émilion appellation, farmed across 10 hectares of clay-limestone soils by Thunevin SAS. Founded in 1989 by Jean-Luc Thunevin and Murielle Andraud, this château wrote one of the most remarkable chapters in modern Bordeaux: starting from just 0.6 hectares vinified in a garage in 1991, it earned Premier Grand Cru Classé B status in the 2012 classification. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this château for the rigour of its HVE-certified viticulture, the precision of its Merlot-led blends, and the extraordinary trajectory of a producer that genuinely redefined what Saint-Émilion could be. A Bordeaux reference we are proud to list.
