Tasting Notes:

Talbot can be wound up in its youth, but it's eminently drinkable. At 6-12 years, Talbot hits its stride and it's just yummy right now. An instant classic from a classic vintage, the wine has broad shoulders, but there are feminine qualities of floral aromas, bright black cherry fruit, and seamless integration. This wine is a joy to drink. Get it before it's gone.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM:

94 Points, James Suckling

The smoky oak, full body, and chunky tannins make a bold statement; indeed, the wine has plenty of flesh and packs a big tannic punch on the finish. Best Talbot in years. Drink in 2023. 

94 Points, Antonio Galloni

"The 2014 Talbot is soft, silky and wonderfully nuanced on the palate. Much more refined from bottle than it was from barrel, the 2014 has moved toward greater finesse over the last two years. This is a lovely effort. Lifted rose petal and lavender notes add closing nuance. The blend is 62 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 35 % Merlot and 6 % Petit Verdot"
