2005 Ch. Talbot, St Julien
This is very hedonistic, with bags of lush upfront fruit and easy charm. An attractive perfumed nose is followed by a silky textured palate, with good tannins and concentration. It is utterly delicious but is very atypical St Julien - if anything it is more reminiscent of a Pomerol! A real vin de plaisir and the best Talbot we can remember.

Complex notes of fruit, herbs and spice. Restarined yet alluring. A beautifully pitched palate weight, delivering the ripe balance of the vintage in a sleek style.

A strong effort for Talbot, the 2005 is more showy and forward than most wines of this vintage. While there is plenty of tannin, it is sweet and well-concealed behind an intriguing bouquet of sweet herbs, licorice, smoked game, black currants, and cherries. This fleshy, medium to full-bodied St.-Julien exhibits a silky sweetness to its texture and tannins. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2020+.
