Jane Anson
This white from Talbot shows clear varietal character, which is not always the case in 2018. Full of flavour, it`s rich in stone fruits and enjoyable without quite the lift and concentration of 2017. 91 points
Julia Harding
Ripe citrus and spice on the nose. Quite a bit of obvious oak both on the nose and on the palate. A little bit fat, more flavour than elegance. Tastes as if there was some botrytis but seems unlikely in 2018. 15.5 points
Lisa Perrotti-Brown
The 2018 Caillou Blanc de Talbot comes bounding out of the glass with bold, tropical scents of fresh pineapples and passion fruit plus hints of lemongrass and ginger. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is ripe and seductive with just enough freshness and a long, tropical finish. 89-91 points
