Product features : Château Palmer 3ème Cru Classé Margaux
Breeding
21 months in French oak barrels (approximately 65% new wood)
On the eye
Deep, impenetrable garnet. A colour of considerable depth and concentration.
On the nose
Complex and beguiling bouquet. Cassis and wild blackberry lead, with notes of dark cherry and a subtle mineral undertone characteristic of the Left Bank.
In the mouth
Harmonious palate. Merlot contributes finesse and precise fruit; Cabernet Sauvignon brings structure and rigour. The finish extends gracefully over dark fruit and fine spice, with no sense of hurry.
Palmer possesses a distinctive style—one of refinement, subtlety and elegance. This is not a wine of power, but of intellectual complexity. The Merlot-led blend achieves a balance that rewards both near-term appreciation and patient cellaring. A wine that speaks of its terroir with clarity and restraint.
