					<description><![CDATA[Legend relates that the name of this imposing estate originates with Connétable Talbot, a famous English warrior, defeated at the battle of Castillon in 1453. Talbot is one of the Medoc’s oldest estates, its glory never tainted. Through the years, it has been fortunate enough to remain in good hands. The owners are Nancy Bignon-Cordier and her family. They are the fourth generation of Cordiers to manage this Saint-Julien fourth Classified Growth.
For many, Talbot embodies the ideal Saint-Julien, a generous bouquet, extremely stable and dependable during aging, a champion of longevity; even young Talbot is pleasant and rounded, always characterized by silky, mild and very civilized tannins. Talbot possesses an expansive character. It’s never withdrawn into itself and has the courtesy of being in a good mood every day.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>TECHNICAL DATA</strong><br />
Alcohol 13.5%</p>
<p><strong>APPEARANCE</strong><br />
Ruby red with purple hues.</p>
<p><strong>NOSE</strong><br />
A classic and powerfully concentrated Saint-Julien wine, featuring a rich core of dark fruits balanced by traditional savory notes like tobacco and cedar.</p>
<p><strong>PALATE</strong><br />
The palate offers a mixture of succulent black currant, plum, and fruitcake flavors, accompanied by notes of liquorice, coffee and espresso.</p>
<p><strong>AGEING</strong><br />
15 months in oak barrels (50% new).</p>
<p><strong>PAIRING</strong><br />
The wine&#8217;s tannins are softened by the fat and protein in robust meat dishes, such as roast lamb, steak, game and poultry, making them an ideal pairing.</p>
