"It embraces its playful and indulgent side—a delicious wine, ready to drink and brimming with round, vibrant fruit. ~ La RVF"

“Fruity and full-bodied, the Connétable Talbot’s bouquet displays depth and precision. This precision is also evident on the palate and serves as a unifying thread. The creamy, velvety tannins provide excellent structure and ensure both depth and freshness. A flavorful wine that can be enjoyed even when young.” (Yves Beck 2024)

Rated estate (2022 guide): 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)

About the estate:

This estate, one of the most deservedly popular in the Médoc, is still owned by the Cordier family. It produces a bountiful harvest, which has gained in character and definition since 2014. For many, Talbot embodies the ideal Saint-Julien—generously aromatic, very stable, and reliable for aging. A lovely dry white wine—aromatic and lively—continues to be produced under the Caillou-Blanc label. The thoughtful winemaking, guided by Stéphane Derenoncourt in a skillfully modernized fermentation room and cellar, is paying off.

About the wine:

Bright strawberries and fresh cherries: this wine bursts on the palate with aromas of freshly picked summer berries and high, almost citrus-like acidity, which gives it its vibrant character. It’s all about energy and liveliness, rather than power and intensity. A truly pleasant and easy-drinking wine, with well-integrated tannins and wonderful salty notes in the background. I also appreciate its hints of fresh mint. 2026–2040

This strong brand, rightly appreciated by wine lovers, has made a strong comeback and is now producing the wines we’ve come to expect from it. Equipped with high-performance, modern facilities that are skillfully managed, Nancy Bignon-Cordier’s vast estate—led by Jean-Michel Laporte—is reclaiming the glory of its past, producing wines that are more subtle and refined than ever. A flamboyant wine, the archetype of the great classic Saint-Julien.

A lovely, distinctive nose of aromatic herbs and spices. This same rich character carries over to the palate, with notes of pot-au-feu with fresh herbs and a hint of meat. 2025–2031

Vert de Vin

Wine rated (2025 guide) 92/100 (Jonathan Choukroun Chicheportiche)

About the wine:

The nose is refined, mineral, and juicy. It reveals notes of fresh, vibrant cherry, pulpy purple plum, and—more subtly—cherry blossoms, combined with subtle hints of pepper and rose, as well as delicate touches of fresh blond tobacco and star anise. The palate is fruity, juicy, and smooth, with a mineral and tangy structure, fullness, vibrancy, and richness, along with a lovely silkiness and purity of fruit. It expresses notes of bright cherry, plump and vibrant blackcurrant, and, more subtly, vibrant raspberry, combined with hints of star anise, cherry blossom, as well as hints of licorice root and chocolate. Good length, with a hint of chocolate. The tannins are fresh and flavorful.
