Volume: 750 ml
Château Talbot 2012 is a distinguished expression from one of Saint-Julien’s most celebrated Fourth Growth estates, known for crafting wines of power, elegance, and long-term cellaring potential. This vintage blends approximately 59% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot, and 5% Petit Verdot, aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, half of which were new. The result is a wine that captures the refined structure of the appellation while offering an inviting, approachable style in its youth.
The bouquet opens with layers of ripe cassis, blackberry, and dark cherry, lifted by delicate floral notes of violet and accented with cedar, cigar box, and subtle spice. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with silky yet firm tannins, delivering flavors of blackcurrant, plum, and hints of graphite, supported by fresh acidity that adds vibrancy and balance. The finish is long and persistent, marked by the classic Saint-Julien harmony between fruit, structure, and finesse.
Château Talbot 2012 pairs beautifully with roast lamb, grilled ribeye, venison, or mature cheeses, making it a versatile choice for both refined dinners and special celebrations. While already enjoyable after decanting, this vintage will continue to evolve gracefully over the next decade, developing greater complexity and tertiary nuances.
Whether you're enjoying a glass in the lush surroundings of Al Warqaa in Dubai or hosting a sophisticated dinner in Al Raha Beach in the UAE, Château Talbot 2012 brings the timeless charm of Bordeaux to every occasion.
