A rather meager wine with decent cherry and herbal character. Not very good for Talbot. Drink now. James Suckling, Wine Spectator 2000

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.
