The estate and the wine |
|
|
A one-of-a-kind opportunity! Our close relationships with Bordeaux’s most prestigious estates have once again allowed us to bring you something truly exceptional: a special cuvée born from the meticulous collaboration between Olivier Poussier, Best Sommelier in the World 2000, and one of Saint-Julien’s most renowned estates—whose identity we’ve kept under wraps.
This exclusive Bordeaux transaction has resulted in the creation of "Saint-Julien by VALAP", crafted from exceptional selections of the finest origins. The wine embodies the elegance and completeness of the appellation's greatest names, showcasing a remarkably pure style and impeccable character. |

The 2017 Red Saint-Julien by VALAP is an absolute delight. Crafted from the estate’s younger vines, it showcases beautifully concentrated fruit flavors alongside refined, silky tannins that envelop the palate. Both harmonious and powerful, this wine beautifully captures the elegance of its origin. The vintage’s fresh, vibrant tannins add an extra layer of character, making it truly captivating. |
