This 2006 Saint-Émilion Grand Cru is a Right Bank Bordeaux blend led by Merlot alongside Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and small amounts of Malbec and Carmenère, reflecting the estate's meticulous, low-yield approach to winemaking. At 13.5% alcohol and now two decades old, expect a mature wine with dark plum, dried fruit, tobacco and earthy, savory complexity, with tannins fully softened by extended bottle age. Pair it with roast lamb, duck or a mature hard cheese.\n\u003cdiv class=\"fiche-enrichie\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"fiche-caracteristiques\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAppellation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSAINT EMILION GRAND CRU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEstate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVALANDRAUD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBordeaux, Rive Droite Libourne\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrape variety\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMerlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Carmenère\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"fiche-faq\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould this wine be decanted?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e20 to 30 minutes of aeration in a decanter is recommended for red wines, especially younger vintages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long can this wine be cellared?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis grand cru has an estimated cellaring potential of 15 to 30 years under good storage conditions (cellar at a stable 12-14 °C).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat food pairs well with this wine?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt pairs particularly well with: roast lamb, duck, mature hard cheese.
