    The Château Talbot vineyard stretches across gravelly-sandy soils, promoting optimal drainage and allowing the roots to penetrate deeply. This type of soil, combined with a temperate oceanic climate, contributes to the slow and harmonious ripening of the grapes. The vines, averaging 35 years old, are cultivated with care, respecting the principles of sustainable viticulture, to ensure the quality of the grapes while preserving the environment.

    Owner and history

    Château Talbot is currently managed by the Cordier family, who have preserved the estate's heritage while integrating modern practices. Their commitment to quality and sustainability is reflected in every bottle produced. Passionate about their terroir, they strive to convey their love of wine through wines that tell the story of their land. Under their guidance, the estate continues to evolve while remaining true to its identity, offering wines that appeal to both connoisseurs and newcomers alike.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Château Talbot is a meticulous process, blending tradition and innovation. The grapes are harvested by hand to ensure only the finest berries are selected. After careful destemming, the grapes are fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, allowing for optimal temperature management. Aging in oak barrels, approximately 30% of which are new, lasts between 12 and 15 months, imparting complexity and finesse to the wine. This attention to detail at every stage guarantees a balanced wine, true to the estate's identity.
