PRODUCER

Virginie Thunevin

Domaine Virginie Thunevin is created by Jean-Luc Thunevin, who is generally referred to as “the bad boy of Saint-Émilion.” Thunevin was a Bordeaux negociant and wine bar owner when, in 1989, he and his wife Murielle bought a 1.5-acre parcel near Pavie-Macquin and started making wine in a garage. He called his wine Chateau Valandraud and in 1995, which was Valandraud’s fourth vintage, the wine earned 95 pts from Robert M. Parker Jr. Thunevin’s untraditional approach to winemaking in the highly traditional Bordeaux region earned him recognition as the first “garagiste” winemaker in Bordeaux, where there are now many more winemakers defying convention to make modern wines. Domaine Virginie Thunevin is named for the couple’s daughter and it is made from 40- year-old vines in Lalande de Fronsac. The wine is 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 10% Cabernet Franc.

REGION

France, Bordeaux

Bordeaux is the world’s most famous fine-wine producing region. Even non-wine drinkers recognize the names of Bordeaux’s celebrated wines, such as Margaux and Lafite-Rothschild. Located near the Atlantic coast in southwest France, the region takes its name from the seaport city of Bordeaux, a wine trading center with an outstanding site on the Garonne River and easy access to the Atlantic. Like most French wine regions, Bordeaux’s first vineyards were planted by the Romans more than 2,000 years ago, then tended by medieval monks. Aristocrats and nobility later owned the region’s best estates and today estates are owned by everyone from non-French business conglomerates to families who have been proprietors for generations. Bordeaux has nearly 280,000 acres of vineyards, 57 appellations and 10,000 wine-producing châteaux. Bordeaux is bifurcated by the Gironde Estuary into so-called “right bank” and “left bank” appellations. Bordeaux’s red wines are blends of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec. It also makes white wines of Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle. There are several classification systems in Bordeaux. All are attempts to rank the estates based on the historic quality of the wines.
