Château TALBOT
4ème grand cru classé

Always jet black, always deliciously rich and smooth, always St-Julien and, above all, always consistent, Talbot is a great Bordeaux brand known and renowned across five continents. Supervised by Mr Derenoncourt from 2009 and under the leadership of Mr Laporte (formerly of La Conseillante) since 2018, Talbot has gained in aromatic precision, intensity and depth.

La Revue du Vin de France : 95-96/100 "Talbot offers a particularly appealing interpretation of the vintage. Notes of black cherry and fresh fruit, with a dense, creamy palate supported by well-structured tannins. The fresh, lingering finish perfectly rounds off this generous, approachable style."

Bettane+Desseauve : 94/100 “A wine that truly reflects its terroir and is particularly harmonious. Maturation will give it even greater depth.”

Vinous (N. Martin) : 93-95/100 "The 2025 Talbot has a generous bouquet, a mixture of red and black fruit intermixed with mocha and light undergrowth scents, typical Talbot. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, well judged acidity, satisfying weight and density on the mid-palate that had been lacking in vintages past. A little more grip on the grainy-textured finish, lightly spiced with a hint of powdered chocolate, if you seek a classic Saint-Julien and, it must be said, often at a reasonable price, then look no further."

Vinous (A. Galloni) : 92-94+/100 "The 2025 Talbot is a huge, potent wine. Blackberry, gravel, incense, dried herbs, menthol, licorice and dark spice soar out of the glass. Huge swaths of tannin frame it all effortlessly. Talbot is a beast in 2025. It needs time to settle down."

J-M Quarin : 92/100 “Soft on the palate at first, flavourful in the mid-palate with a delicate texture, the wine builds in the finish, becoming more dense than ever. It ends with a satisfying flavour and well-integrated tannins. This could well be the most complete vintage ever seen at Talbot.”
