89-91William Kelley - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"A strong effort, the 2023 Connetable de Talbot reveals aromas of plums, berries, dark chocolate and pipe tobacco, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and mouth-filling palate. It will offer a broad and satisfying drinking window."
89 Georgina Hindle - Decanter
"Slightly high toned and a bit tight with prominent tannins although there’s nothing harsh here just some compaction right now. Pure blackcurrant and a dash of liquorice. Nice acidity and a long length with a stony finish. Not a bad effort."
