Château Talbot is a historic estate in Saint-Julien, known for wines that are structured and consistent, but also approachable with age. The 1990 vintage was warm, ripe, and long-lived—and in magnum, this wine has evolved slowly and gracefully, preserving freshness and aromatics while allowing the tannins to soften into silk.

Now over 30 years old, it opens with cassis, dried cherry, cedar, and tobacco leaf, alongside subtle notes of leather, graphite, and forest floor. The texture is plush but balanced by a gentle backbone of acidity and minerality that reflects its gravelly Médoc terroir.

Drinking beautifully now, especially from magnum, which offers not just grandeur but also enhanced freshness and complexity. Pair it with roast lamb, aged cheeses, or nothing but a quiet evening and a wide glass.

Professional Reviews

Robert Parker

RP 88
"This fully mature 1990 reveals plenty of lightening and bricking at the edge. Aromas of grilled meat, leather, cedar, herbs, and smoky black fruits are followed by a low acid, plush wine that lacks the concentration seen in the top wines of the vintage." -Robert Parker

Wine Spectator

WS 90
"Dark ruby color, with mineral, berry and wet soil. Medium-bodied, with firm tannins and a long, fresh finish. Pretty wine." -Elegant Talbot
