2005 Ch. Talbot, St Julien
Product: 2005-0750-01-8011853
Description
A Quatrième Cru Classé, Ch. Talbot has a reputation for consistency, as one of the most carefully made and reliable of the St Julien Cru Classé Clarets. The best examples are richly aromatic with a bouquet of cedar wood and vanilla-scented cassis fruit, with a palate packed with well-delineated, ripe, black fruits and finely integrated tannins.
This is very hedonistic, with bags of lush, upfront fruit and easy charm. An attractive, perfumed nose is followed by a silky, textured palate, with good tannins and concentration. It is utterly delicious but is very atypical St Julien Eif anything it is more reminiscent of a Pomerol! A real vin de plaisir and the best Talbot we can remember.
