With tasting notes by Jane Anson...
Château Talbot, situated smack in the middle of an ocean of vines, is one of the rare classified growths of the Médoc where the family owners reside. Nancy Bignon-Cordier likes to remind her visitors that she does not think of herself as its proprietor, rather as the custodian of a patrimony to be passed on to her children.
She has good reason to be proud of her family’s ownership of this property, located in the St-Julien appellation, as 2018 marks the 100th anniversary of its acquisition by Désiré Cordier. In anticipation of the centennial, a new high-tech winery and a monumental barrel hall, graced with branch-like pillars that recall the gobelet or bush-vine training shape, were constructed.

<p>One of the invaluable assets of such an heirloom is its long history; but the origin of the Talbot name is shrouded in mystery. It is usually traced to the English nobleman, John Talbot (c.1384-1453), First Earl of Shrewsbury, who in fact never laid claim to the property, as it was non-existent in his lifetime.</p>
<p>What did exist was Talbot’s fame and glory as a military commander during the Hundred Years’ War, before he lost his life in France at the Battle of Castillon. Prior to his death, he had been appointed Constable of France by the King of England, and he appears in that role as a character in Shakespeare’s play about the loss of the French territories, <em>Henry VI Part One</em>, in which the sabre-rattling sobriquet, ‘the terror of the French’, is applied to Talbot.Legend has it that Talbot passed through the Médoc and established a camp in St-Julien, near where the château now stands.</p>

<p>A map published in 1785 by Pierre de Belleyme indicates a <em>lieu-dit</em> or specific site named Talbot, including a house belonging to the Delage family, which in all likelihood became Château Talbot. However, <em>Le Médoc</em>, the authoritative book about the region written by René Pijassou in 1980, points in another direction for the origin of the name, towards a Gascon term of unknown meaning, ‘Talabot’, which transformed over time into Talbot.</p>

<h2><strong>A family affair</strong></h2>
<p>Whatever its origin, the easily pronounced name of Talbot has surely played a role in the international success of the wines from this estate, which was classified as a fourth growth in 1855. Stability and tradition, as well as a corollary consistency for its wines, have also been important factors in its renown, for throughout its history it has only known four different families as owners.</p>
<p>After the aforementioned Delage family built the first edifice and probably put the initial vineyard in place, Jean-Jacques d’Aux de Lescout from Armagnac acquired the estate, which became known as Talbot-d’Aux. After the death of Jean-Jacques in 1813, it passed to his son Henry-Raymond (later Marquis d’Aux-Lally), who expanded both the château and the estate. It remained in the family until Henry-Raymond’s son, Arnaud, sold it to Albert Claverie in 1899, from whom the Cordier family bought it in 1918.</p>
<p>This was a crucial stage in the history of Château Talbot, for Désiré Cordier was a wine merchant hailing from the east of France who in 1913 had already purchased Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey in the Sauternes region and later acquired other prestigious Bordeaux estates, including Meyney in St-Estèphe and Gruaud Larose, also in St-Julien, as well as Clos des Jacobins in St-Emilion. As such, the distinctive Cordier labels became ubiquitous in international markets and a favourite on restaurant wine lists.</p>
<p>‘Château Talbot was lucky to belong to a family of wine merchants with pockets deep enough to maintain such a large vineyard,’ explains Jean-Paul Bignon, husband of Bignon-Cordier, who is now in charge of the domaine. Indeed, such a constant familial link has become rare in the Médoc, as more and more properties change hands because of complicated cases of inheritance.</p>
<p>Bignon-Cordier, her husband and their three children (Marguerite, Philippine and Gustave) continue to reside on what has always been a big property, comprising 110ha, most classified as St-Julien, but including 5.2ha of white wine grapes under the more basic Bordeaux appellation.</p>

<h2><strong>In the vineyard</strong></h2>
<p>Another factor of constancy for the past decade has been the role of Jean-Pierre Marty as general manager since 2006. Before retiring this March, Marty noted: ‘Talbot alone among the classified châteaux of St-Julien has a vineyard consisting of a single block of vines.’ To gild the lily, Talbot’s vines, most having an average age of 50 years, are located at the highest point of the commune, on Günzian gravel of the best sort and ‘with less clay than those planted closer to the Gironde estuary’. Its soil is thus well drained, a valuable attribute in the Médoc.</p>
<p>Sand is also present in the mix, providing finesse and elegance as well as a capacity for staying the distance. Indeed, the Talbot style has never been one of precocious pleasure, but one that comes to the fore with ageing. Its backbone is the large proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon, comprising 68% of the vineyard, with 28% Merlot and 4% Petit Verdot.</p>
<p>The wine produced by Château Talbot has never been subject to the phenomenon of wine speculation, and benefits from a reputation of presenting good value. Recent prices have been along the lines of €40 (£35) to €50 (£43) a bottle en primeur, and from €55 (£48) to €60 (£51) when released in bottle.</p>
<p>Another striking feature of Château Talbot is that it is home to one of the oldest plots of white wine grapes in the Médoc, first planted in the 1930s by Georges Cordier, Désiré’s son. He was proud of his lineage from the Alsace-Lorraine region of eastern France and loved white wine. He even cultivated Riesling for a time in what was to become at harvest time an island of white grape vines surrounded by an ocean of red grapes, the source for a wine commercialised as Caillou Blanc. Today these 5.2ha are mainly Sauvignon Blanc, with 1ha devoted to Sémillon, and they produce an aromatic wine of citrussy character that is precise and nervy.</p>

<h2><strong>Consistency and consultants</strong></h2>
<p>When asked if having a contiguous vineyard of a single block is an asset, even an incentive, for conducting organic viticulture, Bignon replies, ‘It is better to be a good practitioner of so-called conventional viticulture than a mediocre proponent of an organic approach.’ Nevertheless, he admits to experimenting with it on around 20% of the estate for the 2018 vintage, while having no immediate plans to convert the whole vineyard.</p>
<p>Jean-Michel Laporte, formerly director of Château La Conseillante in Pomerol, who has replaced Marty as general manager of Talbot, shares this view. ‘I’ll try to continue the work accomplished by Jean-Pierre, while bringing the fruits of what I learned at La Conseillante, a much smaller-scale estate. The wines of Talbot have clearly been getting even better in recent vintages.’ He evidently plans no substantial change to the tradition of Talbot, known for its consistency and reliability.</p>
<p>Respect for tradition does not equate to a closed-minded vision of the world. Talbot is advised by two of the leading Bordeaux wine consultants, both internationally renowned. Stéphane Derenoncourt supervises the viticulture, and Eric Boissenot the vinification and wine-cellaring stages. As Bignon sees it, ‘Stéphane brings us a sharper view regarding the work in the vineyard, particularly when it comes to choosing harvest dates, while Eric accompanies us during the winemaking and the blending process.’ Together they form an atypical duo in the region, bringing to the wine of Talbot in recent vintages both greater precision and plenitude.</p>
<p>Talbot thus embodies both the contemporary history and current trends of Bordeaux, whether as a precursor for white wine in the Médoc, as a paragon of commercial flair, a model for continuity in family ownership, or an ardent defender and promoter of its terroir. Thanks to the captivating history of the estate as well as its special mix of tradition and modernity in the elaboration of its wines – full of seductive charm once they reach their apogee – the family can continue to transmit to future generations of wine lovers the precious legacy of a fine wine named Talbot.</p>
