Description

Chateau Talbot 1989
St. Julien
6bn, 2ts, 12bsl, 5ll, owc
Bottle (12)


"The 1989 is more elegant, with none of the exotic spice and meaty, leathery aromas of the 1982. Opaque black/ruby, with a huge bouquet of black fruits and spices, this highly extracted, medium to full-bodied wine is voluptuous on the palate, with a fine finish. Lower in acidity than the 1982, but higher in tannin than the 1986, the 1989 Talbot promises to drink well during its first decade of life, but keep for up to 20 years." (90 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, April 1992)

"A wonderful wine, although I would pip the 1986 as just a touch more reflective of the estate. Lovely touches of iron on the attack lead into the most beautiful explosion of black fruits. It blossoms in the glass, showing more concentrated spice than many vintages, with liquorice and earthy, peaty flavours abounding through the palate. It has more stuffing and a little less elegance than the 1986, which gives it a definite appeal. Still extremely young. Served from magnum." (92 pts. Jane Anson, Decanter, Dec. 2018)
