Chateau Valandraud Saint Emilion Grand Cru 2019 Wood Box Gluten Free Vodka 1 is the necessary controlRichly textured, featuring cashmere like waves of dark plum, cassis and blackberry compote flavors that glide through and are laced with light violet, anise and black tea notes. The rumble of tannins can be heard on the finish, but for the vintage, this is extremely suave in the end. Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2025 through 2040. 2,900 cases made.
