Good, firm fruits are well placed, with notes of cedar, liquorice and cassis – this really is an enjoyable Talbot that offers the promise of a long life. There's enjoyable grip and tenacity through the palate, with spicy, flexible tannins. It has a substantial weight that fleshes out and deepens. It's savoury in the French sense of 'savoureux', with connotations of juiciness and a 'give me more' appeal. Aged in 50% new oak.
Gorgeous, justly renowned St-Julien, aromatic with blackcurrants, leather and herbs, all enhanced by chocolate, spice and smoked oak on the palate.
Hand harvesting, using lot selection. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks at temperature controlled. Maceration: 3 weeks. ageing in Oak barrels, 50% new oak.
A fantastic match with fillet of beef with a red wine sauce, but will pair very well with any red meat dishes, game or strong cheese.
