| Description: | 94-95 JS / 94 Ja / 93-95 Vm / 92-94 Wa / 91-93+ JD. A medium- to full-bodied red with very fine tannins. It's firm and structured, showing a bright, dark-fruited character. Focused, with a good center-palate and a lingering finish. Really polished. - James Suckling. More proof that Talbot is on a roll, revved up and ready to take off. This is a brilliantly juicy but understated Talbot, lovely quality, classically-minded with cassis, blueberry, mint leaf, cocoa bean, espresso and powerful grilled fennel. Great stuff. 60% new oak for ageing, and a generous 54hl/ha yield. - Jane Anson. The 2023 Talbot is another strong wine for this re-emerging estate. Powerful, deep and impressively resonant, the 2023 is striking. Darktoned fruit, new leather, lavender and dried herbs build over time. There's terrific depth and intensity here, with fine balance to match. This is a superb showing from Talbot and the team led by Estate Director Jean-Michel Laporte. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media. Offering up aromas of dark berries, baking chocolate, plums, espresso roast and crushed mint, the 2023 Talbot is medium to full-bodied, deep and fleshy, with a rich but lively core of fruit, powdery tannins and a long, penetrating finish. Harvested over the course of fully four weeks, it's a blend of 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot that attained 13% alcohol. - William Kelley, Wine Advocate. Smoky red and black fruits, leafy herbs, truffle, and some lively, background floral notes all emerge from the 2023 Château Talbot, a medium-bodied Saint-Julien that has a pure, elegant mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and the fresher yet balanced style of the vintage. - Jeb Dunnuck |
