Château Talbot, 4e cru classé Saint-Julien 2023 En Primeur - Case of 6
Another great effort with lots of Saint-Julien quality. They have used more Cabernet in the blend than ever, due to the tricky vintage but that fruit was perfectly ripe as they waited to pick after the rain, and sorted extensively on picking. The nose is a wonderful cassis, mulberry and currant medley, followed by a slug of blueberry in the mouth. Tannins are fine, supple and add to the succulence you feel, the whole is charming, soft with lovely length and shape. It’s a delicious mid-term wine this year, highly recommended.
