Château Valandraud, 2005. A.O.C. Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, Bordeaux, Gironde, France. Red wine. 3 bottles of 75 cl. Vinous (Antonio Galloni): 100/100; Jeb Dunnuck: 98/100; Robert Parker (The Wine Advocate): 97/100; Wine Spectator: 95/100. Condition: IN (Into neck) level on all three bottles. Original brown capsules, intact, with green French tax seals at the top. Main labels complete, well-adhered, and legible. All three bottles feature the estate’s characteristic embossed glass medallion. From a private collection, stored under optimal temperature and humidity conditions. Château Valandraud, founded by Jean-Luc Thunevin and Murielle Andraud, is one of the leading estates in Saint-Émilion and an iconic name in Bordeaux’s “vins de garage” movement. The 2005 vintage, considered exceptional in the region, stands out for its extraordinary concentration, complexity, and aging potential. Made primarily from Merlot and Cabernet Franc, it offers an intense expression of ripe black fruits, plum, licorice, chocolate, spices, and delicate mineral nuances, with enveloping tannins and a long, persistent finish. Its limited production, international prestige, and the quality of this vintage make this set of three bottles an attractive opportunity for collectors of great Bordeaux wines.
