(We'll reduce item's price when processing your order.) 89 points Robert Parker: "Another sleeper of the vintage from this large estate (95 acres purchased by the owners of the Louis Roederer Champagne firm), the deep plum/ruby-hued 2008 De Pez possesses soft acids, low acidity, medium to full body and attractive plum, red and black currant, licorice and spice box characteristics. A blend of 50% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Petit Verdot, it should be consumed over the next 10 years. (May 2011)"
89 points Wine Enthusiast: "Powerfully ripe wine, solidly based on a structure of dark tannins and dense black currant fruit. The wine has imprisoned power and density, needing several years for it to be set free. (Apr 2011)"

Producer notes: "Good intense purple robe. Fruity bouquet with red fruits and light vanilla notes. Good extraction, not overwhelming. Good attack. Flavors of red cherry, cedar and box tree. Silky, melting tannins. Full bodied with good structure, balance and nice long finish. Perhaps the best value in Médoc wines today."

89 points Wine Enthusiast: "[$35 list] Deeply embedded in firm tannins, this is a wine for aging. There is plenty of mineral, black currant and plum juice fruit, with a fine juicy element as well as acidity. It is balanced and harmonious, a keeper for 5-6 years. (12/31/10)"

Producer notes: "60% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon. Lovely rich red in color, aromas of licorice, leather and ripe red fruits. On the palate it is fresh, with the red fruits and licorice following from the nose. Full bodied, harmonious and well structured with firm tanins, it is elegant yet powerful. A perfect match with roasted or grilled meats or game and of course with a nice ripe Camembert or Roquefort."

89 points Wine Enthusiast: "[$24 list] Ripe wine, full of rounded juicy black currant fruits, this has a core of tannins, dry and laced with wood toast. There is a black chocolate bitterness which goes with the acidity on the finish. Alcohol 13.5%. (Nov 2011)"

90 points Robert Parker: "Made in the tell-tale Kirwan style (medium to full-bodied, lots of muscle, concentration, and thickness), the dense purple-colored 2008 offers sweet blackberry and cassis fruit along with a layered mouthfeel. A sleeper of the vintage, this 2008 remains backward and thus will benefit from 2-3 years of cellaring. It has the potential to keep for two decades. (May 2011)"
90 points Wine Enthusiast: "Lots of new wood here, very spicy, toasty on the nose and palate. There is a dense, firm tannic character as well and the finish offers fresh flavors, typical of 2008. For medium-term aging over 5-7 years. (Apr 2011)"

90 points Robert Parker: "The evolved, soft, silky 2008 Talbot is unquestionably a sleeper of the vintage, offering a dark plum/garnet color, loads of roasted herb, berry, black cherry, plum and Asian spice aromas intermixed with an attractive forest floor-like note. Already drinking well, this medium-bodied St.-Julien should continue to evolve for 10-15+ years. (May 2011)"
