Wine Critic Reviews
Based on 55% Sauvignon Gris, 40% Sauvignon Blanc, and 5% Sémillon, aged in 80% new barrels, the 2024 Château Valandraud Blanc reminds me of Pavillon Blanc from Château Margaux with its citrus, mint, floral, and crushed stone aromatics. Medium-bodied and concentrated, it has a gorgeous mineral character and riveting length on the finish.

Races out with vibrant notes of fresh grapefruit and lemongrass, plus hints of lime blossoms, crunchy pears, and fennel seed. Medium-bodied, the palate is racy and intense with loads of spicy sparks on the finish.

The 2024 Valandraud Blanc is magnificent. Bright, aromatic and sculpted, the 2024 sizzles with tension and energy. There's plenty of substance beneath, however. Lemon confit, white flowers, slate, chalk and mint are all beautifully delineated in this captivating, dynamic white. The 2024 is fabulous. That's all there is to it.

The 2024 Valandraud Blanc was picked three times in the vineyard and matured in 80% new oak and 20% amphora. It is less expressive than the Virginie at the moment, but there is more concentration and honeysuckle scent that evolves in the glass. The palate is well balanced with a tangy, orange pith and mandarin-tinged entry. It has a keen line of acidity with a composed and persistent finish. I can see this drinking very well once in bottle. I like the energy here.
