Alex Lallos, JJ Buckley, January 2007

Pretty and well made, with a lovely core of fruit and silky tannins. All in balance for the vintage. Almost 92-94. Score range: 89-91 -JS

Stephen Tanzer's IWC, June 2009

Red-ruby. Cool aromas of currant, mocha, graphite, tobacco and herbs; I don't find this wine's typical Vosne-like black fruit and floral character today. Supple and moderately broad but could use a bit more definition and eclat A moderately ripe Rol Valentin, finishing with dusty tannins and a lightly peppery quality. 88 points

Wine Spectator, March 2009

Offers white truffle, blackberry and cherry on the nose. Medium-bodied, with round, silky tannins and a fine, delicious finish. Best after 2014. -JS

About Winery

Château Rol Valentin is one of the new breed of garagiste wines that have emerged in St-Emilion  in the last 10 years. These wines are made in minuscule quantities and are usually very deeply colored, intensely concentrated, and packed with super-ripe fruit with strong hints of new wood.

Rol Valentin has just 5 hectares of vineyards located on the north-western part of the plateau of St-Emilion. Its vineyards are planted with 90% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon.
