Note di degustazione
The 2025 Caillou Blanc Talbot is the first vintage that will be classed as a Médoc Blanc after the change in rules. It has an attractive, quite floral bouquet, white flowers, hints of apricot and custard creams. The palate is well balanced, with a fine bead of acidity, bright and lively, a little tang on the finish, but I like how the 88% Sauvignon imparts tension, and so this is a Caillou with less exoticism. Very fine.

Plenty of substance and volume, with delicious sweet lemons and herbs. Medium-bodied with fresh acidity. Round and mellow finish.
The 2025 Caillou Blanc de Talbot, a blend of 88% Sauvignon Blanc and 12% Sémillon (30% new oak), reflects a higher proportion of Sauvignon Blanc than usual due to reduced fruit set. It reveals aromas of confit citrus, clove, white fruits and pineapple. Medium- to full-bodied, juicy and dense, it’s enveloping despite the varietal balance, combining freshness with good length and an elegant finish.

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.
