Chateau Talbot 2019, 750ml

A blend of 69% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot, aged 15 months in barrels, of which 60% is new French oak.

Tasting Note:

The 2019 Talbot is performing well, opening in the glass with aromas of earthy cassis, plums, burning embers and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and succulent, with powdery tannins, lively acids and a savory finish, it's Jean-Michel Laporte's second vintage at this sleeping giant of Saint-Julien.
