Château Talbot 1982 (1 BT)

Château Talbot 1982 

St. Julien, 4ème Cru Classé

u. 1hs, label slighlty soiled, Cordier import label, cork very slightly depressed; Etiquette légèrement sale, étiquette d'importation Cordier, bouchon très légèrement enfoncé

In 2016 and from double magnum, this gave enormous pleasure and was lapped up with gusto. The fruit and health are so immediate, along with succulence, smooth volume and a mouth-filling quality. Talbot just always delivers and from a great year and in giant format, it really hits the mark. In 2021 and from bottle, this is attractive right now. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

A small but excellent collection of mature Bordeaux and Burgundy with a special emphasis on Domaine de la Romanée Conti and the coveted 1990 vintage, widely regarded as one of the finest ever releases, which should now be approaching its peak drinking phase.
