ABOUT THE WINE
Legend has it that Chateau Talbot takes its name from a British soldier, Connetable Talbot, who was killed in a battle at Castillon in 1453; the estate was named in his honour. Since 1917, Talbot has been owned by the Cordier family. The family has invested heavily in Talbot to ensure that it achieves the quality levels of which it is capable. With 102 hectares of vineyards, Talbot is one of the largest estates in the Medoc; wines see 50-60% new oak, for around 15 months.

TASTING NOTES
Medium-bodied, with gritty tannins and lovely dark fruit, youthful, with plenty of potential for long-ageing, but drinking well already. Fresh and airy. You'll find pencil lead, slate, woodsmoke, blackberry.

FOOD PAIRING
Strong flavours; lamb, beef stews, cured meat and game

FRIARWOOD SAYS
A fabulous Talbot. Drinking well already, though will mellow and mature with age - from now until 2045 and beyond.

First Order

My first order was delivered very quickly. Also the packaging was the best of any wine merchants from whom I have ordered. Just had one bottle so far which was excellent. I am looking forward to the rest.

Vibrant!

this is such a great alternative from the european cabernet sauvignon. it's got great body but still not too overpowering. I hadn't had many non-french cabernet sauvignon and now im very glad Friarwood suggested this to me

Rich and delicious

we were suggested this wine in the parsons green shop on our way to a friend's dinner. we asked for something to go with meat and steak, and this was a stunner! so rich and yummy. everyone at dinner was impressed.

2020 Tres Palacios, Family Vintage Carmenere

Bright, zesty, and refreshing, Chilean Sauvignon Blanc is like a burst of sunshine in a glass. With vibrant citrus notes, crisp green apple, and a hint of tropical fruit, it delivers a perfect balance of acidity and flavor. Its clean, mineral finish makes it an ideal companion for seafood, salads, or any sunny afternoon.

Lovely Merloy

This Chilean Merlot is my go-to for an easy, satisfying glass of red. With its rich notes of ripe plum, blackberries, and a touch of chocolate, it strikes the perfect balance between fruitiness and softness. The gentle tannins and smooth finish make it incredibly drinkable, whether paired with a meal or enjoyed on its own.

Discovered this wine recently

I haven't tried many Carmenere wines before but I was very pleasantly surprised by this one. Very resembling of a Cabernet Sauvignon but with a bit more spice.
