Lovely Saint Julien offering sweet, evolved flavours, good ripeness and supple texture. Palate offers dried herbs, flowers and hint of figs. Very impressed with this 1990 Talbot which offers great drinking pleasure as well as ability to age even further.

Dark ruby color, with mineral, berry and wet soil. Medium-bodied, with firm tannins and a long, fresh finish. Pretty wine. Elegant Talbot.--

Fully mature, the wine lacks the density and purity of its neighbors. But the fruit is clearly ripe. Better on the nose than the palate, the bouquet, with its cedar chest, tobacco leaf, smoke, thyme, and woodsy aromatics are a treat. The wine is soft and has taken the textures showing the patina of age. From memory, I liked this wine a lot more 10 years ago.

This fully mature 1990 reveals plenty of lightening and bricking at the edge. Aromas of grilled meat, leather, cedar, herbs, and smoky black fruits are followed by a low acid, plush wine that lacks the concentration seen in the top wines of the vintage.

An attractive, even exciting wine. Lovely coulour; sweet, chewy, with almost '82 extract.

Château Château Talbot
Château Talbot

Château Talbot is one of the most iconic estates of the Saint-Julien appellation, on the Left Bank of Bordeaux. Classified as a Fourth Grand Cru Classé in 1855, the estate benefits from a strong historical reputation, associated with an accessible, consistent and deeply Médoc style. Its name, inherited from the English Constable John Talbot, a prominent figure in the Hundred Years' War, testifies to the vineyard's antiquity and its roots in Bordeaux history.

The Château Talbot vineyard now extends over approximately 110 hectares, making it one of the largest classified growths in Saint-Julien. The deep gravel soils, resting on clay-sandy subsoils, offer ideal conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon, the majority grape variety in the blend, complemented by Merlot, Cabernet Franc and a touch of Petit Verdot. This parcel diversity allows for the production of balanced, precise and consistent wines.

The style of Château Talbot is distinguished by its readability, its harmonious structure and its clear aromatic expression, combining black fruits, notes of cedar, blond tobacco and sweet spices. Renowned for their relative accessibility in their youth while offering solid aging potential, the estate's wines age with elegance. Vintages such as Château Talbot 1982, Château Talbot 1996, Château Talbot 2000, Château Talbot 1986 illustrate the consistent quality and reliability of this great Saint-Julien wine.
