Talbot Caillou Blanc 2025 - France - En Primeur
Bordeaux Blanc Sec, Bordeaux, France
Caillou Blanc de Château Talbot is a well-regarded dry white Bordeaux from the Médoc, known for its fresh, Sauvignon Blanc–driven style and straightforward, clean expression. The 2025 vintage continues in this approachable and aromatic direction, offering purity, freshness, and early drinkability.
The nose is bright and expressive, with aromas of lemon zest, grapefruit, green apple, pear, white flowers, and subtle herbal and flinty notes. On the palate, the wine is light to medium-bodied, crisp and refreshing, with zesty acidity and a clean citrus-driven core. The finish is fresh, straightforward, and lightly mineral.
