Tasting notes
Talbot's 1993 exhibits a medium ruby color, a fragrant, smoky, herbal, green pepper-scented nose, light to medium body, no astringency or sharpness, yet, sadly, unimpressive flavor concentration. The wine is ready to drink, and should be consumed over the next 4-5 years.

Ripe, lush red berry and plummy character. Medium-bodied, quite soft and delicious now, adding a seductive lead-pencil, mint, currant character and smooth finish. Drinkable now. 27,500 cases made. James Suckling, Wine Spectator 1996

Quality has not necessarily always lived up to this property’s Fourth Growth status, however there have been significant improvements in recent years, with a sustainable focus in the vineyard, and new winery and cellar.
