September 8, 2023 - Classic Bordeaux. 55 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 39 % Merlot, 6 % Petit Verdot. More elegant with soft tannins. Easy, drinking wine.

September 2, 2023 - Quite lovely on the nose and smooth on the pallet. Strong fruit with blackcurrant and blueberry.

March 19, 2023 - Decanted, and consumed over the next 6 hours. Modest nose of red and black berries. Gradually opened up, with each glass displaying more than the previous one. Flavors of blackberry and plum. Smooth tannin, medium minus acidity. Medium length finish. As usual with Chateau Talbot, an elegant, restrained and balanced wine.
