Clos Badon Thunevin: A St-Émilion Statement

The CLOS BADON THUNEVIN is a prestigious Saint-Émilion Grand Cru from the visionary team of Jean-Luc Thunevin and Murielle Andraud. Located on the esteemed Right Bank, the vineyard’s silico-gravelly soils yield a wine of remarkable depth and finesse. This is a modern Bordeaux that delivers immediate pleasure while retaining the classic structure required for extended cellaring.

Tasting Notes
