TASTING NOTES
The 2015 Connétable de Talbot presents a deep ruby colour. The nose offers medium intensity aromas of smoky cassis, earth, and a hint of vanilla. On the palate, it is well-structured with fine tannins, pure fruit, and medium length.
FOOD PAIRING
This wine pairs excellently with robust flavours such as lamb, beef stews, and cured meats.
FRIARWOOD SAYS
An exceptional Connétable de Talbot, the 2015 vintage is approachable now but will continue to develop gracefully over the next 10–15 years. Decant before serving to fully appreciate its complexity.
