Community Tasting Note

SirJ Likes this wine:

Thursday, May 9, 2024 - Followed up last week's wines, Chateau Talbot and Standish Wine Co Standish, both 2019. Both were very good from the start last weekend, but now both were so much better. It was of course to be expected when you open such young wines.

Standish is really powerful, but thanks to a wonderful tannin structure and a clear acidity, it manages to balance the fruit, it needs time to become homogeneous. A fantastic Shiraz!

Ch Talbot has become a Left Bank favourite. Full body but the classic minerality, pencil, tobacco and mocca, cassis. Will get even better with time.

It's fun with wine friends. Drink or hold (but give this wine time!)
