Producer Information

Château Talbot is a well-regarded wine estate in the Saint-Julien appellation of the Haut-Médoc wine region, just north of the city of Bordeaux. The estate was ranked a fourth growth in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification. The château is located in the center of the zone of cru classé vineyards, just "inland" (east) from the Léoville properties (Las Cases, Barton and Poyferré). It lies just east of the town of Saint-Julien-Beychevelle at the very north of the Saint-Julien appellation. Indeed, the large, 110-hectare (272-acre) single-block vineyard stretches northwards to the border with the Pauillac appellation. As with other top estates in the Médoc, the vineyard is situated on the banks of the Gironde estuary on deposits of alluvial gravel on top of fossil-rich limestone. All but five hectares (12 acres) is planted to red varieties – 68 percent to Cabernet Sauvignon with 28 percent Merlot and 4 percent to Petit Verdot. Grapes are vinified in a mix of wooden and stainless steel vats. The flagship Château Talbot wine (often known as a the "grand vin") is aged for 14 to 16 months in oak barrels, around half of which are new.
