Note di degustazione
An exceptional 2nd wine, showing the progress of Talbot in recent years. Straight on the aromatics you get sweet fruit, blueberry and cassis, plenty of pomegrantage, roses and orange peel, fresh acidities and a mouthwatering finish, still young, but bright with cocoa bean and a sleek, attractive edge of slate and mint. Director Jean-Michel Laporte in his second year at the estate, no new oak for ageing. Gorgeous balance, absolutely one to look out for.

The 2019 Connetable de Talbot has a rather monotone bouquet that lacks the terroir expression of its peers, slightly pruney in style. The palate is medium-bodied with a smooth entry. Tarry in style, the oak a little too vocal and I wonder if there is real substance behind that facade? Espresso lingers on the aftertaste. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting.
Tasted blind. Looks MUCH more evolved than wine 11 in this flight (Ch Lagrange). Rich and round and a bit soft; but exotic and delivers pleasure. Not to be sniffed at! (JR)
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.
