CAILLOU BLANC
Dry white wine from Château Talbot
- 2021
- Bordeaux dry white
Based on Sauvignon (with a hint of Semillon), Caillou Blanc has been presented for 50 years as the archetype of Médoc dry white wine: pale colour, between delicate freshness and aromatic distinction (citrus fruits, bitter orange, honeysuckle), never too full or demonstrative. And always reasonably positioned in terms of price.
The 2021 vintage in the press:
Vinous (N. Martin - November 2023): 89/100 “The 2021 Caillou Blanc Talbot is similar to the sample I tasted a dew months earlier. Displaying pear and orange pith on the nose, well-defined and focused, this is very appealing. The palate has slimmed down a little in the intervening period, with hints of lychee emerging on the finish. Fine.”
