"This is really powerful with excellent depth of fruit and richness. Spices, blueberries and lightly toasted oak now. But it shows really serious structure. Best Talbot in years, maybe decades."
94/95

Tasted blind. Very dark and slightly evolved-looking. Dense and for the moment somewhat impenetrable but promising. Lots of life in there. Somewhat inky for the moment. But gorgeous.

The 2014 Talbot has a ripe and generous bouquet with black cherries, boysenberry and light violet petal aromas that gain intensity with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chewy and chunky tannin, good weight in the mouth if just missing the finesse of its peers towards the finish. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting. 2020 - 2035
