Chateau Talbot 'Connetable Talbot', Saintjulien 2015

Tasting Notes:

The resulting blend displays a garnet colour lined by light crimson hues. Pleasing aromas of blackberries, blackcurrants A wine with definition and refinement. Hints of tobacco and chocolate. Full body, super fine and flavorful. Juicy and savory. The walnut and spice on the end is gorgeous. 94-95 JS 

Tasting Notes:

Deep in color, with cedar wood, spice, blackberry and gravel scents, this medium/full bodied, tannic, masculine wine requires time before the ample tannins soften and everything comes together.

Tasting Notes:

Layered and juicy 2015 with currants, light chocolate and cedar character. It’s full-bodied, round-textured and very pretty. Extremely long and flavorful. So friendly and bright.

Tasting Notes:

Good intensity of black and red plum notes with hints of stewed tea, menthol and cassis plus an earthy undercurrent of underbrush and fungi. Medium-bodied, the palate offers plenty of juicy fruit with a chewy frame and a refreshing lift to the finish, making for a great everyday quaffing red!

Tasting Notes:

Bright ruby red colour with pinkish trimmings at the edges with medium to long legs. Very warmth vintage especially on the right bank therefore eucalyptus, barnyard and forest floor are prominent with almost no fruits being detected on the nose. Palate are brimming with very well rippen plum, dark prune juice, raisins and black currant. It is a full bodied wine with intense acidity.

Tasting Notes:

Roundness and power, these red wines have a seductive and full-bodied bouquet.

Tasting Notes:

Notes of figs, haw, rosemary, cigar and mushrooms on the nose. A very earthy mouthfeel with smooth tannins and juicy blackberries on the palate. Ends with the tastse lingering in the mouth.

Pairing:

Deli Meats, Red Meat, Poultry

Tasting Notes:

The 2015 Réserve de la Comtesse is a superb second wine. Time in barrel and egg white fining have softened some of the tannins the 2015 showed as a barrel sample, but the fruit intensity, pedigree and class of the estate are all in the glass. Black cherry graphite, smoke and licorice are some of the many notes that infuse this potent, almost shockingly virile Comtesse.
