CRITIC REVIEWS
Antonio Galloni
The 2018 Talbot is quite the powerhouse. Inky and deep, the 2018 possesses striking textural richness from start to finish. Inky dark fruit, licorice, cloves, new leather, menthol, violet and chocolate fill out the layers effortlessly in this decidedly flashy Saint-Julien. This is a terrific effort for Technical Director Jean-Michel Laporte in his first vintage at Talbot. It will be interesting to see where the chateau goes in future years. This is certainly an opulent, rich style.
Lisa Perrotti-Brown
Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Talbot features notions of baked blackcurrants, stewed plums and bouquet garni with hints of tilled soil, tobacco leaf and pencil lead. The medium-bodied palate is softly textured with bags of juicy black fruits supported by chewy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing savory.

66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot. Special dark coloured, engraved, centenary bottle to mark the 100 years of Cordier ownership. Deep purple-black hue. Big and rich with a creme de cassis nuance. Plenty of mid-palate volume and gras. Big tannic frame so powerful in style. More modern in concept than the other vintages. Clearly for long cellaring.
