The medium-colored 1990 is an elegant, structured, more restrained style of wine than usual. There is admirable ripeness and length, but the wine lacks the outstanding depth and flavor dimension of other top vintages of Talbot. Is the style being changed?
Dark ruby color, with mineral, berry and wet soil. Medium-bodied, with firm tannins and a long, fresh finish. Pretty wine. Elegant Talbot
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 17/20 points.
