Caillou Blanc Chateau Talbot

Bordeaux

Golden yellow, fleshy apricot and lemon curd, edge of butterscotch, much more in the style of the ripe 2019, and a clear reflection of the hot summer. Harvest August 31 to September 5, two weeks earlier than 2021. Barrel ferment and aged, one third new oak, 7 months with two months lees stirring + 7 months bottle ageing before release.

Inside Bordeaux

Baking spices, cloves, cumin, preserved lemon, white pear, charming if soft on the finish.

Pale green-gold, oak smudging on the nose, cold ash and campfire, opening to bright citrus, white flowers, good quality with lift.

The 2021 Caillou Blanc from Talbot is a little reduced, offering glimpses at fresh lemon juice, wet pebbles, and white pepper, plus a touch of yuzu. Medium-bodied, the palate has delicate flavors and a chalky finish.

The 2020 Caillou Blanc from Talbot races out with notes of fresh pears, lime leaves, and lemongrass, with touches of wild thyme, dill seed, and crushed rocks. The medium-bodied palate is light on its feet and refreshing, with an herbal lift on the finish.

Vibrant yellow, fully ripe and engaging, orange peel, pink grapefruit, apricot, with character and exotic richness and a welcome oyster shell salinity as it opens in the glass. White grapes were planted here in the late 1920s, and the brand created in the 1950s, making it one of the oldest in the Medoc. They harvest late to avoid too much Sauvignon Blanc stereotype character, press in whole bunches to give edge of salinity, then barrel ferment in one third new oak, 7 months with two months lees stirring + 7 months bottle ageing before release.
