This is one of the best second wines of the Médoc. Like its elder, this is a classic, elegant wine, with a clear, well-designed structure and a long, fresh final.
Winemaker and Vineyard: On the plateau of Saint-Julien, one can see from afar Château Talbot, amidst an ocean of vines, between the large trees of its park. This vintage is named after Constable Talbot, Count of Shrewsbury, a famous English war man and governor of Guyenne, defeated at the Battle of Castillon in 1453. In 1855, during the classification of the Médoc and Graves ordered by Emperor Napoleon III, Château Talbot was promoted to fourth classified growth of Saint-Julien. After being owned by the Marquis d'Aux for decades, the estate was acquired in 1918 by Désiré Cordier. In total, the 110 hectares of Château Talbot vineyard extend all around the house up to the northern borders of the appellation, on the edge of Pauillac. Planted on a terroir of fine günzian gravels on a limestone base with asterias, forming draining mounds, we find a majority of red vines (105 hectares) and a confidential area of white vines (5 hectares). The condition of the vineyard is one of the most irreproachable in the Médoc. The wines, supervised by Nancy Bignon-Cordier with the precious advice of the oenologist Eric Boissenot and the consultant Stéphane Derenoncourt, are generous and of great elegance. Their easy tasting and their silky tannins allow them to be appreciated young as well as after a long guard in the cellar. Over time, they develop a delicate and complex aromatic bouquet of cedar and Havana.
Tasting: "A second wine of beautiful appearance, fruity and toasted on the nose, balanced, fresh and "well in its tannins" in the mouth." Guide Hachette des vins #NRP
Service: Serve at room temperature (16-18°C) to accompany a filet-mignon in crust.
