Chateau Talbot 座落在 Saint-Julien (聖朱利安) 的西部，1855梅多克評級列級酒莊第四級(Quatrieme grands crus classes)。

Chateau Talbot的名字來源於15世紀中期時的一位英國陸軍統帥 -- 約翰·太保（John Talbot）。當時正值英法百年戰爭（Hundred Years’ War）時期，太保將軍是Guyenne地區的總督，在1453年的卡斯蒂永戰役（Battle of Castillon）中，法軍戰勝並擊斃了太保將軍，波爾多這片土地終於得以重回法國的懷抱。據說，太保將軍的大本營曾在Talbot城堡所在的土地上，於是酒莊便以他的姓氏命名，同時酒莊出產的葡萄酒也因這段歷史被人們視為寓意勝利的喜慶之酒。在著名的葡萄酒漫畫《神之水滴》（Drops of God）中，Chateau Talbot紅葡萄酒（Chateau Talbot, Saint-Julien, France）也曾被主人公的父親用來當作預祝兒子比賽勝利的慶賀之酒。

19世紀早期，Chateau Talbot的葡萄酒開始得到人們的普遍好評。這個時候，Chateau Talbot由Marquis d’Aux家族管理。之後，歷經兩度轉手，於1918年被Desire Cordier收購。在Desire Cordier的兒子Georges Cordier和孫子Jean Cordier的細心經營下，Chateau Talbot的名氣達到頂峰，成為波爾多最著名的酒莊之一。

Rock 'em, sock 'em St.-Julien, with mouthcoating ganache and tar notes backed by commensurate cassis, blueberry paste and blackberry reduction flavors. The long finish rumbles through, with buried brambly grip providing the support for the dense fruit and toast to meld.

This is already a beautiful St.-Julien that’s ripe and elegant with not a jot too much oak or tannin, but a very fresh and lively finish that keeps on going. However, there are some serious reserves in this wine that need time to be released.

 The 2016 Talbot is aromatically quite expressive, but less available on the palate, where it is quite closed down. Time in the glass brings out a host of sweet tobacco, smoke, leather, cedar, mint, licorice and red-toned fruit. In two tastings, Talbot gave the impression it is going to need at least a few years to fully come into its own. Even so there is plenty to look forward to once the tannins start to melt away a bit. Consultants Stéphane Derenoncourt and Julien Lavenu have done quite a bit to raise the bar here, but I get a sense more is possible. Tasted two times.

The 2016 Talbot is medium garnet-purple colored and opens with pretty floral notes of roses and lavender with a core of cassis, blackberry preserves and kirsch plus wafts of cigar box and spearmint. Medium-bodied with a lovely intensity of black and red fruit flavors, it has a ripe, grainy texture and compelling freshness, finishing savory.
