  James Suckling
  "A juicy young 2011 with chocolate, berry and toasted-oak character. Full and rich. Needs time to soften. This is better than the 2010 Talbot. Try in 2017."

  Decanter
  "This at 10 years old is a beautiful sappy fruit-filled wine. There are traces of tertiary aromatics of blond tobacco and ever so gentle autumnal leaf crackle, but this still has grip and welcoming autumnal fruits. Very enjoyable and balanced, full of nuance and charm. A yield of 46hl/ha. 50% new oak."

  Weinwisser
  "Dunkles Granat, recht satt in der Mitte, rubinroter Rand. Delikates, florales Bouquet, Tabakblatt, Zedernnuancen, schwarze Pfefferkörner, blaubeerige Tendenzen. Eleganter, lang geformter Gaumen, gut integrierte Tannine, angenehmes Finale. Kein spektakulärer Talbot, aber wenigstens ein sehr guter. Und das ist hier erst seit 2009 wieder eine gewisse Garantie. Ich habe ihn nochmals auf Lagrange an der Union des Grands Crus degustiert und dort hatte er sogar Merkmale von einem ziemlich grossen) Napa-Cabernet. Die 18/20 ist in baldiger Reichweite."

  Wine Enthusiast
  "With attractive, juicy fruit, this wine has as much freshness as it does structure. The palate is warm and open with blackberry fruits that are rounded and soft. Spice and some tannins show through on the finish. Drink from 2017. "

  The Wine Advocate
  "Talbot’s dense ruby/purple color is followed by an attractive, spicy, earthy St.-Julien displaying hints of tapenade, black cherries and soil undertones in a forward, lush, round, seductive style. This excellent, medium-bodied 2011 should provide delicious drinking for 10-15 years. Talbot appears to have succeeded admirably in this vintage."

  Falstaff
  "Kräftiges Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Ockerrandaufhellung. Brombeeren und Lakritze, zart nach Pfefferminze und Verveine, dezente Edelholznuancen, einladendes Bukett. Mittlere Komplexität, rote Kirschenfrucht, feine Tannine, frisch, aber schlank, zart blättrig im Nachhall, wirkt etwas schlank und laubig im Rückgeschmack."

  Wine Spectator
  "This pulls no punches in terms of style, presenting fleshy ganache and tar notes out front, with an ample core of crushed plum and macerated black currant fruit and a long, muscular, tarry finish. A strong showing."
