Chateau Talbot 2016 Saint-Julien France Medium Red Les Allees de Cantemerle before an orange vert emergesThe 2016 Talbot has an airy, well defined bouquet of blackberry, cedar and light minty aromas, perhaps more Pauillac than Saint Julien. The medium bodied palate delivers gritty tannins, a fine bead of acidity and a graphite infused finish. This is very fine for Talbot, a Saint Julien hewn in a typically classic style. 92 Pts Vinous
