Confirmation of my previous ratings : 92
Pleasant wine. Roundness would be the overall most suitable definition: the nose is discreet as would be a basket of rose petals; on the palate, tannins are supple and there is a goodequilibrium between freshness, red fruit jam and tertiary flavours of tobacco/cedar
Short finish
To drink now and perhaps till 2026

Monthly Tuesday group "The Dead Sparrow": Pauillac and St. Julien (By me @ the factory): Beautiful bouquet with dark berries, laurel, truffle, cigar box and some stable smells. On the palate juicy dark berries, cocoa, laurel, coffee, good acidity and soft, round tannin. Fully mature and delicious now.

Bottle directly from the cellar of Talbot. What a delicious and fully mature Talbot. Very open and perfumed nose of black fruit, cedar, and hints of earth. On the palate the wine had very dusty and integrated tannins and still with great acidity.
Drink now and then next 5-8 years.

The nose is wonderful - fresh raspberry and roses. In the mouth there is an agreeable freshness too, with crisp blackcurrant and raspberry flavours, but it has a very short finish and it lacks persistence mid-palate. Not a bad wine by any means, but not one of the better 06s, nor a great example of Talbot. At the current auction prices, I'd avoid it.

Yaaaah Friday into, but a 4am wake up to head to Tokyo so just the one…Talbot 2006
Fuller than I expected reading the tasting notes, with deep layering middle notes and a loooong after taste. Cheese and ham/salami ok it to another level and the end result was a great hour, punctuated by bullshit man chat.
Wish I had some more as it’s boxing above its weight and vintage
