Connetable de Talbot Saint Julien 2016 - 750ml

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Pale to medium garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Connetable de Talbot features red and black plums as well as red and black currants on the nose with suggestions of bay leaves, fallen leaves and cloves. The palate is medium-bodied, refreshing and elegant with plenty of lively red berries and warm plum flavors, with a soft texture and spicy finish.

Vinous

The 2016 Connétable Talbot is a pleasant Saint-Julien to drink now and over the next few year. Sweet tobacco, dried herbs, leather and game add shades of nuance to this attractive second wine from Talbot.
