Verkostnotiz:: Verkostnotiz Wine Advocate:
Deep purple-black in color, the 2018 Valandraud is still sporting a fair bit of oak on the nose, with the cedary notions giving way to a profound core of Black Forest cake, stewed plums and boysenberry preserves, plus suggestions of espresso, clove oil, unsmoked cigars and charcuterie with a waft of Chinese five spice. The full-bodied palate is jam-packed with rich black fruit preserves, framed by sturdy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing long and tinged with exotic spices. It will need a good 5-6 years for everything to marry and for the nuances to be fully expressed, then enjoy it over the next 25+ years.

Verkostnotiz Wine Spectator:
This shows off a range of loganberry, black currant and fig notes that are enticing in feel thanks to racy acidity, while singed sandalwood, incense and bay details line the finish. Sneaky length too. Lovely. Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. Best from 2023 through 2036. 2,915 cases made. Verkostnotiz James Suckling:
Grapefruit-zest, pear-skin, green-papaya, cardamom, chalk and hay aromas. Hints of vanilla and cream. It’s medium-to full-bodied with bright acidity and a phenolic, creamy yet tight texture. Concentrated and focused with great length. Wonderful structure and energy. Better from 2022.

Verkostnotiz Falstaff:
Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, dezente Randaufhellung. Attraktives schwarzes Waldbeerkonfit, reife Herzkirschen, ein Hauch von Edelholz, zart nach Kräuter und Vanille. Komplex, saftig, reife schwarze Beerenfrucht, runde Tannine, extraktsüß im Abgang, sehr gute Frische und Länge, sicheres Reifepotenzial.
