  • Goedhuis Waddesdon, April 2026, Score: 92-94

    Super-enticing nose, with plenty of blackcurrants and cherries leaping out, and a really pleasing savoury undertone adding interest too – iodine and salinity. This follows through onto the palate, but some pencil lead and violet also come through. Great structure, correct and well managed tannins, balanced beautifully with the refreshing bead of acidity running through the core. Great stuff.

  • Neal Martin, May 2026, Score: 93-95

    The 2025 Talbot contains the highest ever Petit Verdot (9%) this year due to more generous yields. Picked from September 5 to 22, a little quicker than expected as Laporte spotted some botrytis, at 28 hl/ha, this is matured in 60% new oak barrels. It has a generous bouquet, a mixture of red and black fruit intermixed with mocha and light undergrowth scents, typical Talbot. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, well judged acidity, satisfying weight and density on the mid-palate that had been lacking in vintages past. A little more grip on the grainy-textured finish, lightly spiced with a hint of powdered chocolate, if you seek a classic Saint-Julien and, it must be said, often at a reasonable price, then look no further. Drink 2031-2050

  • Wine Advocate, April 2026, Score: 91-93

    Bright and harmonious, the 2025 Talbot wafts from the glass with aromas of mulberries, violet, cassis, dark cherries and spice, framed by well-integrated oak. Medium- to full-bodied, it’s concentrated and dense, built around a massive core of fruit framed by structured, youthful tannins and concludes with a somewhat firm, gently bitter finish. It's a blend of 74% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot and 9% Petit Verdot.

  • Antonio Galloni, April 2026, Score: 92-94+

    The 2025 Talbot is a huge, potent wine. Blackberry, gravel, incense, dried herbs, menthol, licorice and dark spice soar out of the glass. Huge swaths of tannin frame it all effortlessly. Talbot is a beast in 2025. It needs time to settle down. Drink 2033-2055.

  • Jancis Robinson, May 2026, Score: 17/20

    74% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, 9% Petit Verdot. 28 hl/ha. Cask sample. Dark-fruit aromas. Palate juicy, ripe and fresh. Clean, persistent finish. Structured and balanced. Everything in place. A classic from this estate. Drink 2032-2045

Château Talbot

A mark of the significant English influence in Bordeaux, Talbot was named after John Talbot, Earlof Shrewsbury, who fought gallantly but unsuccessfully against the French in Castillon in 1453. For many years, it was a twin to Gruaud Larose which also bore the Cordier label. However, since 1992 Jean Cordier exchanged his shares in Gruaud to take complete control of Talbot.

Region

St Julien

St Julien is like the middle child of the Médoc - not as assertive as Pauillac or as coquettish as Margaux. It lies firmly between the two more outspoken communes and as a result produces a blend of them both. St Julien's wines have often been sought out by aficionados for their balance and consistency, particularly in the UK. Yet due to its middle child nature, it can occasionally be overlooked globally and as a result underrated by those markets outside the UK. Despite the fact that it has no first growths, it has several second growths including Léoville Las Cases, Léoville Barton, Léoville Poyferré and Ducru Beaucaillou as well as the celebrated châteaux such as Talbot and Beychevelle.
