Colour
Mid ruby-purple
Bouquet
sweet red fruit, with a lightly sanguin, iron tone that adds a savoury, moreish character.
Flavour
juicy and refined, with an effortless intensity and elegance. Cool hedgerow fruit and fine, ripe tannins make for a compact and classic style. This is a very good example of working with the vintage rather than trying to force a different style. Long with pure blue fruit on the finish.

Description

Grape: 71% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot.

It’s true, Talbot is a champion of longevity, which doesn’t prevent it from being amiable and round even in its earliest youth, always marked by silky, smooth, very civilized tannins. Talbot is outgoing by nature, never inward-looking. It’s a racy wine, with complex notes of Havana and licorice, deliciously classic without the slightest hint of austerity.

Winemking
