The Château Talbot 2017 presents a juicy and youthfully compact profile, brimming with bramble-edged cassis, plum, and blackberry flavors. These dark fruit notes are beautifully lined with intriguing licorice snap and tar details. The wine exhibits a grippy back end that shows good energy, with latent acidity adding remarkable length. A subtle, buried bolt of iron adds further depth and complexity to its range.
