Château Talbot 2014
Saint-Julien – 4ème Grand Cru Classé
The nose is elegant and racy. It reveals notes of blackberry, cassis and oak associated with slight grilled notes, flowers (discreet) as well as hints of red fruits and spices. The wine needs to be decanted (carafe). The palate is elegant, fruity, mineral, racy, silky, well-balanced and offers a small fat. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of juicy blackberry, cassis and fine notes of cherry associated with hints of small wild berries, slight notes of chocolate, grilled oak as well as discreet hints of cardamon and tea. Tannins are fine and (currently) young. Good length.
Score : 16.5
