Wine information:
Undeniably, Talbot is one of the most famous Médoc wines. This fine reputation is no doubt due to a mysterious combination of factors, such as the size of its vineyard, nearly one hundred hectares, and the regularity of its wine. Nearly a century in the same family, the name Talbot is concise and hard-hitting and easy to pronounce in all languages! ‘For many, Talbot embodies the ideal Saint Julien, a generous bouquet, extremely stable and dependable during aging,’ emphasize Bettane and Desseauve in their Guide to French Wines.Blend: 67% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot.
"Scents of dried herbs, underbrush, cassis, and currants emerge from this attractively perfumed, supple, spicy, medium-bodied St.-Julien. It possesses a succulent texture, low acidity, and soft tannin. Enjoy it over the next decade." 88 Points Robert Parker, Wine Advocate # 140 Drink 2002-2012
"Aromas of coffee, plum and blackberry follow through to a full body, with soft and round tannins and tar, berry and roasted coffee bean undertones. 25,000 cases made." 88 Points James Suckling, Wine Spectator 2009. Drink 2003-2016
