Description
A historic wine. Marking the bicentenary of the estate taking Major General Palmer's name, this vintage is proof of Palmer's relentless innovation. No sulfur was added to the harvested grapes, allowing the terroir to express all its complexity.
Complexity. That of a terroir, expressed in the wines of Château Palmer. Parcel by parcel, the estate's teams must nurture it daily. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, protected and enriched by nature in all its diversity, develop notes of fruit, flowers and spice. Never exuberance - on the contrary, with each passing year, ever greater harmony, and length omnipresent. Aromatic richness, powerful tannins, and between them - velvet.

Tasting
Nose: A powerful cloud of perfume, totally captivating from the first moment. The wine exudes class and finesse. Deep, perfectly ripe, unblemished black fruit and fine floral aromas characterise this beautiful bouquet. Although the wine has the air of enormous maturity, it also has a great expression of freshness, which is further enhanced by a bouquet of herbs. This is endless depth and again indescribably noble.
Palate: The palate also shows great freshness and a fruity intensity that almost overwhelms the senses. Precise and harmonious in every respect. The solid structure blends very harmoniously into the overall picture. Enormous length and pressure right to the end.
