BAD BOY BORDEAUX THUNEVIN

Chateau Valandraud’s garagiste owner, Jean-Luc Thunevin is best known for his stunning Saint-Emilion-Château Valandraud, as well as his successful career as a Bordeaux negociant. Produced from a careful selection of vines from the Right bank, from properties managed or advised by J.L.Thunevin, the BAD BOY is an original cuvee created in 2000. The grapes are harvested and vinified under the constant and careful watch of his team in order to bottle one of the best Bordeaux reds. The idea of calling this cuvée “Bad Boy” (or Mauvais Garçon) came from Robert Parker’s nickname for Jean-Luc Thunevin as the American critic regularly called “Bordeaux’s black sheep” or “Saint Emilion’s Bad Boy”.
