Château Talbot

Connetable de Talbot Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

Nose: a bit vegetal. Some earth.

Palate: bright cherry. A bit tight. Not super joyous. Sorta green and tight.

Needs some air.

This is very young. Might be good in 3 years. Has the bones of elegance. Good texture.

Connétable de Talbot

St. Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 1995

Oldschool Classic at it’s best!
Surprisingly fresh in the nose with black currant leaf, a pleasant greenness, pencil shavings and a plethora of tertiary aromas.
On the palate this is rather light bodied with still quite youthful grippy tannins, juicy acidity and great length.
This is poised, has presence and really good length.
Classic!!

Caillou Blanc Bordeaux Sauvignon Sémillon 2020

Very golden in the glass, nose of white peach and lemon rind, body full but mimics an old Chardonnay with creme brulet notes but lacking acid with medium finish. This wine is aging more like a oaked California Chardonnay either a full malolactic fermentation. — 2 months ago

Château Lalande-Borie

Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 1990

Well stored bottle, No problems whatsoever Dark web info, Chateau Lalande Borie is a relatively new estate in the Medoc. The vineyard was initially created when the Borie family purchased 18 hectares of vines from Chateau Lagrange in 1970. To that, they added 12 more hectares of vines from various other growers, some of which needed planting.

Things changed with the 2018 vintage when the estate was renamed Le Petit Ducru.

Chateau Lalande Borie Vineyards, Terroir, Grapes, Winemaking

The 25-hectare, Left Bank vineyard is planted to 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, and 10% Cabernet Franc. The vineyard has a terroir of gravel and clay soils. The clay in the soil is part of the reason that today, you find more Merlot in the vineyard. Previously the Cabernet Sauvignon occupied 65% of the vineyard makeup.

The vineyard is well placed in the western part of the St. Julien appellation. It is situated inland, not too far from Chateau Lagrange, Chateau Talbot, and Chateau Gruaud Larose. The vineyard is planted to a vine density of 8,500 vines per hectare.

Caillou Blanc Sec Bordeaux Sauvignon Blanc 2022

Nice, fresh, vibrant herby nose with fresh grass, nettle, a bit of fresh green guava. But also some yellow stone fruit in the background. Nice energy here.
A bit creamy on the palate, vibrant juicy acidity, with a nice green grapefruit / pomelo touch in the finish. nice balance & length.
A juicy one and quite lovely sipping while having lunch on the quay in Pauillac.

Connetable Cordier Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 1983

1983 vintage. Connétable de Talbot, second wine of Château Talbot. A testimony to how well even these second wines can age. Cedar wood, flowers, leather. Medium-bodied, fresh acidity, dried plums,spices, slightly rustic tannin, good length. — 2 years ago

Château Poesia

St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2018

Bang on great right out of the bottle. This probably won't reach the potential of the Talbot in the long term, but it's right there ... Now. Also deep and opaque in appearance. Less fruit on the nose. Pepper, briar patch, and a subtle black licorice. This wine seems to already have settled into it's complete incarnation. Of course with it's medium acidity and solid alcohol level, maybe it gets better with age, but pop and pour it now just in case.
