James Suckling bewertet den Virginie de Valandraud 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:
This is gorgeous with lots of dark berries, purple fruit and fresh mushrooms. Medium-to full-bodied with chewy tannins that are fine and polished. Lovely length.
James Mothels bewertet den Virginie de Valandraud 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:
Offers ample fun fruit in the making, with waves of plum sauce, cassis and boysenberry reduction starting to roll in. Polished and easy in feel.
Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Virginie de Valandraud 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:
Deep purple-black in color, the 2018 Virginie de Valandraud opens a little broody with notes of damp soil, truffles and chargrill, opening up to display stewed plums, blackberry tart and plum preserves plus nuances of espresso. Marmite toast, tapenade and wild sage. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has a rock-solid frame of firm, grainy tannins and plenty of freshness lifting the rich, decadent fruit to a long finish.
Antonio Galloni bewertet den Virginie de Valandraud 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:
The 2018 Virginie de Valandraud emerges from a collection of unclassed parcels around Valandraud and on the plains below the core holdings. Powerful, dense and explosive, with an almost shocking level of richness, the Virginie is positively stellar in 2018. Blackberry jam, chocolate, licorice, new spice and leather all saturate the palate in a Saint-emilion endowed with tremendous textural richness and resonance. The Virginie is superb in 2018. It should be a terrific relative value as well.
