Originally owned by Sir John Talbot, an important English military commander, this vineyard comprises 110 hectares of vines and is classified as a 4th Medoc Grand Cru Classe located in the heart and hilltops of Saint Julien. This Wine is a blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot and was aged for 15 months in oak barrels (60% new).
Tasting Notes:
“Coffee bean and smoked tobacco edging as I found with the Connetable 2020, followed up by precision-cut black cherry and cassis fruits. Great balance, gunsmoke and tomato leaf, an excellent follow up to the 2019, reflecting the intense work happening in the vineyard at this point. As you sit with this the generosity of the first moments takes a back seat to the grip and savoury St Julien balance, take you time and enjoy the crayon and slate on the finish. 60% new oak for ageing, Jean-Michel Laporte director.” Score: 94 - Jane Anson, JaneAnson.com, December 2023
Serving Suggestions:
Pairs well with deli meats, game and cheeses.
