The 1959 Château Talbot has been fully mature for decades, but continues to cruise along happily along its plateau of maturity and shows no signs whatsoever of starting to fade anytime soon. The wine is very pure and elegant today, offering up a lovely nose of dried berries, a touch of spiced meats, lovely soil tones, sweet cigar ash (if this makes any sense) and a nice touch of woodsmoke in the upper register. On the palate the wine is medium-full, sweet and complex, with a velvety personality, lovely focus and grip, melted tannins and a long, bright and à point finish. A lovely wine in its tertiary stage of delicacy and elegance. (2017)
