Robert Parker (91)

The 2021 Talbot is promising, exhibiting aromas of wild berries, cherries, cigar wrapper and sweet spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, layered and velvety palate that's bright and seamless, with an enveloping, charming profile despite analytically rather high levels of polyphenols. This is a fine effort that reminds Jean-Michel Laporte of the 2001 vintage in style—though the 2021 will benefit from all the improvements that the last two decades have witnessed at this address. Tasted four times.

James Suckling (93)

A fruity and attractive 2021 with currant and berry aromas and flavors. Hints of citrus. Medium body. Fresh finish.

Falstaff (91)

Opaque ruby core, purple reflections, subtle brightening on the rim. Delicate hints of tobacco, truffle and wild blackberries offer an appealing, savoury bouquet. Medium body, red cherries with fine tannins. A fresh, vibrant style and a versatile food companion.
