Had held this bottle for over 25 years, was always my favorite vintage of Talbot for a long time. Understated, with deep dark fruit tones and tannin that is still solid. Beautiful nose slightly floral with wisps of leather and bell pepper.

Dec 3rd, 2017Perfect colour. Took about 1.5hr to open. Cork was still intact, ullage was up to the capsule. Could have aged another 10years? At first tannin was very forward but mellowed as it sat in the glass.
