Tasted at the château, the 2005 Chateau d’Yquem delivers a similar performance as last year. Lucid in colour, the bouquet is detailed with very pure honey, vanilla and almond scents, still a little new oak to be fully assimilated but demonstrating superb focus.
The nose is fruity and offers a small intensity and a certain concentration. It reveals notes of blackberry and cassis associated with discreet hints of spices and a fine touch of blueberry. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a nice freshness, tension, precision and a silky matter. On the palate this wine expresses notes of blackberry cream, plum and a touch of blueberry combined with a hint of chocolate as well as a fine hint of mocha and licorice. Tannins are fine and well built. Good length.
The cellar in which Eric Jeanneteau raises his single wine, a beautiful red Saint-Émilion grand cru, is an unadorned building on the family estate in Saint-Étienne de Lisse. Jeanneteau varies his vinification quite a bit depending on each vintage’s conditions, and the results can be fascinating, even startling, like hearing the same symphony interpreted by different conductors. His 2015 is supple, vibrant, and alive. The cellar may be plain, but there’s a true chef d’orchestre inside.
Born in 1992 the second wine of Château Valandraud, Virginie de Valandraud is named after Jean-Luc Thunevin and Murielle Andraud ‘s daughter.
Very nice deep ruby color, dazzling. Nose of black cherry, salted caramel, gingerbread. Full and indulgent on the palate with notes of brioche. Very nice impression of sweetness.
