Château Talbot 2024

An ample and elegant wine from Saint-Julien

The property

Founded in the 18th century and acquired in 1917 by the Cordier family, the Château Talbot is a prestigious vineyard located in Saint-Julien-Beychevelle, on the left bank of Bordeaux. Today led by Nancy Bignon-Cordier, with Jean-Pierre Marty and Jean-Michel Laporte, the estate is recognized for its subtle, intense and balanced wines.

The vineyard

The Château Talbot vineyard oversees a 93.5 hectare vineyard within the Saint-Julien appellation. The vines are on average 42 years old.

Vinification and aging

The harvest is entirely hand-picked, followed by successive sorting (manual and optical) to select only the highest quality berries. Vinification takes place in wooden vats. Aging continues for 15 months in barrels, 60% of which are new, allowing the wine to develop its complexity while preserving the fruit and freshness.

Blend

The blend of this Château Talbot 2024 consists of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot.
