Château Talbot

Saint-Julien Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1996


Pine nettle, Black plum reduction, cassis, blackberry tart, graphite, rye toast, caraway, dried roses, pecan and earth. Resilient and long, deep throaty echoes of red and black currents on campfire ash, cassis, oak bark, black olive and dried black currant for ever, plus a scribble of pencil.

Very nice, I'm still holding this vintage and 2000.

Two bottles, and both were holding up well, though showing some sediment that careful decant with candle prevented. Still has energy.
