Chateau Talbot St Julien is a classic Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant Bordeaux with a rich, spicy and fruity palate.

Chateau Talbot is located in the heart of the Saint Julien appellation on the highest elevation the region can offer, 23 metres above sea level.

Talbot today is a prized jewel of the left bank. The fourth growth Grand Cru Classé consistently produces very fine wines from one of the largest estates in the Medoc. Ideally situated on the banks of the estuary of the Gironde on hilltops of alluvial gravel carried by the Dordogne River from the Massif Central and from the Pyrénées by the Garonne, Château Talbot’s terroir is exceptional.

At 104 hectares, mostly planted to Cabernet Sauvignon along with some Merlot and Petit Verdot, the Chateau ages its wines between 14-16 months in equal parts new and old French oak. This gives the wine wonderful freshness and balance.

The wine is dense in profile with many nuances. Showing complex confit plum, liquorice, spice, pepper, smoked meat and roasted cedar. It still has the profile of a youthful wine and will reward careful cellaring for the next decade or so.

Enjoy Chateau Talbot St Julien alongside hearty meat dishes like roast beef, or with a robust French cheese.
