The 2021 Connétable Talbot has a light and, as I discerned from barrel, slightly tertiary bouquet with more tobacco scents. The palate is medium-bodied with light tannins, simple compared to some other Deuxième Vins with just a bit of herbaceousness on the finish.
Handling 2nd wines in 2021 successfully meant leaning into the finesse and balance of St Julien, and making things approachable. They have done a good job with that approach here. Cloves and white pepper spice alongside tobacco leaf and redcurrant - the weakest of the Connetables in the lineup, but plenty to enjoy.
The 2021 Connétable Table has a pleasant earthy bouquet that opens up in the glass to offer brambly black fruit and a subtle marine influence. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chewy tannins on the entry and modest depth, leading to a simple, slightly short finish. (12.8% alcohol)
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.
