Note di degustazione
52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 41% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot, 3% Cabernet Franc. Garnet with brick at the rim. Aromatically evolved with leather, tobacco and leafy notes but the fruit is still there alongside a hallmark smoky-flinty note. Palate juicy, fresh and digestible. Less overt weight but evolving nicely. Finish a little edgy but good drinking with food. (JL)

The 2000 Talbot shows a bit of bricking on the rim. It’s somewhat rustic on the nose, displaying licorice-tinged black fruit, marmalade and furniture polish and just a little brettanomyces. A light underlying balsamic note filters through with time. The palate is medium-bodied, quite savory and powdery in texture, with dry-ish, grainy tannins and a spicy but slightly austere finish.
The 2000 Talbot is served in one of 1,000 “Sylvain Dubuisson” bottles, whereby the bottle is housed in a vessel that filters the wine. Deep in colour, it has a Burgundian bouquet with pastille-like raspberry and cranberry fruit laced with tobacco and cedar. With time in the glass it becomes more floral in style. The palate is medium-bodied and softer in texture than other millennial Left Bank wines. Dorset plum intermingles with boysenberry with a touch of vanilla, though it feels quite backward on the finish (redeemed by appealing smoothness.) Good length here and fine potential. Tasted at the centenary Château Talbot vertical at the property.
Informazioni sul produttore
Quality has not necessarily always lived up to this property’s Fourth Growth status, however there have been significant improvements in recent years, with a sustainable focus in the vineyard, and new winery and cellar.
