Tasting note

2019年的大寶酒是典型的聖朱利安葡萄酒，散發著黑莓、黑櫻桃和黑加侖子的豐富香氣，並帶有草本植物、灌木和茴香的微妙氣息。這款中等酒體的葡萄酒具有緊實的單寧和泥土般的餘味。大寶酒莊擁有超過一世紀的歷史，這個家族經營的酒莊以其穩定的品質和長壽而聞名。葡萄園面積超過100公頃，土壤為礫石，葡萄藤平均年齡為45年。傳統的耕作方式和精細的手工和光學篩選確保了最高品質的葡萄。這款酒在橡木桶中陳釀15個月，其中50%為新橡木桶，為其風味增添了複雜性和深度。

The 2019 Chateau Talbot is a quintessential Saint-Julien wine, offering a generous bouquet of black raspberries, black cherries, and currants, with hints of herbs, garrigue, and aniseed. This medium-bodied wine is taut with firm, chewy tannins and an earthy finish. Produced by the renowned Talbot estate, which has been in the same family for over a century, this wine is known for its consistent quality and longevity. The vineyard spans over 100 hectares of gravelly soil, with vines averaging 45 years old. Traditional plowing and meticulous hand and optical sorting during harvest ensure the highest quality grapes. The wine is aged for 15 months in oak barrels, with 50% new oak, adding complexity and depth to its flavor profile.

Winery

無可否認，大寶是最著名的梅多克葡萄酒之一。這個家族經營的酒莊已有超過一世紀的歷史，擁有超過一百公頃的葡萄園，生產的葡萄酒以其穩定的品質而聞名。正如Bettane和Desseauve在《法國葡萄酒指南》中強調的那樣，對許多人來說，大寶體現了理想的聖朱利安，擁有豐富的香氣，在陳年過程中極其穩定和可靠。事實上，大寶是長壽的冠軍；即使是年輕的大寶也令人愉悅和圓潤，總是以絲滑、溫和和非常文明的單寧為特徵。大寶具有廣闊的性格，它從不自我封閉，每天都保持愉快的心情。這是一款優雅的葡萄酒，帶有哈瓦那煙草和甘草的複雜標誌，經典美味，從不帶有絲毫的嚴肅感。

Undeniably, Talbot is one of the most famous Médoc wines. Having been in the same family for more than a century, this estate with more than one hundred hectares of vines produces wine that is recognized for the consistent quality of its vintages. ‘For many, Talbot embodies the ideal Saint Julien, a generous bouquet, extremely stable and dependable during aging,’ emphasize Bettane and Desseauve in their Guide to French Wines. It’s true, Talbot is a champion of longevity; even young Talbot is pleasant and rounded, always characterized by silky, mild and very civilized tannins. Talbot possesses an expansive character. It’s never withdrawn into itself and has the courtesy of being in a good mood every day. It’s a racy wine, with complex marks of Havana tobacco and licorice, classically delicious without ever the slightest hint of austerity.
