In an ideal world this should be cellared for another 2-3 years with an ageing
potential of another 15-20 years. A sweet, intoxicating nose of ripe, cool, red
fruits with real Margaux appeal. Rich but classically restrained on the palate,
it is unbelievably classy.

This Third Growth property consistently outperforms its classification and is
unquestionably the top estate in Margaux after Ch. Margaux. We have been very
lucky to get our hands on this pristine late-release parcel direct from the
château. This is beginning to drink but in an ideal world it would be cellared
for another 2 to 3 years and has the potential to age a further 15 to 20 years.
However, who is going to be able to resist its sweet, intoxicating aromas of
ripe, cool, red fruits and rich but classically restrained palate until then?
This is an unbelievably classy Palmer that will drink until 2028.

Fully mature and a very classic Palmer. Fruit bomb lovers need not apply; this
is very classy, beautifully soft, old-fashioned claret.

1975 is a very difficult vintage to assess as it is more down to the skill of the producer than the weather. Palmer is probably one of the top wines of this vintage showing no signs of amber, and displaying sweet fruits and well-integrated tannins.

Another vintage where Palmer excelled beyond their 3rd growth status with a
great success. This has a spicier, meatier edge than the 1975 and again is at
its plateau now.

This is the smallest production of Ch. Palmer since 1991, with the vineyards
requiring 300 more man hours work per hectare than in 2006. Thankfully, such
sacrifice has produced a refined, silky-textured Palmer with all the
early-drinking charm of the vintage but atypical intensity, luscious fruit and
high Merlot content (49%). A wonderful nose of cool black fruit, minerals and
toffee is followed by a mouthfilling palate with fine, ripe tannins, attractive
cedar notes and a lingering, pure cassis and plum finish. Not far off the
quality of Ch. Margaux itself this year.

Awesome. Showstopping. Remarkable. Palmer is all of these things in 2005. A
stunning, full bodied expansive beauty of a wine, it is quintessentially
Margaux with the softness of a right-bank Bordeaux. It is silky and gorgeous
with unbelievably pure, firm and precise fruit on the palate. With multiple
layers of complexity, the finish was so long we could still taste it - without
any exaggeration - 15 minutes after leaving the château. The 78-year-old former
winemaker said the only vintage to compare to the 2005 was the 1945 and in his
view the 2005 surpassed the legends of 1961, 1983 and 1989 at the same stage.

The 1961 Palmer has long been considered to be a legend from this vintage, and
its reputation is well-deserved. The wine is at its apogee, with an
extraordinary, sweet, complex nose with aromas of flowers, cassis, toast, and
minerals. It is intensely concentrated, offering a cascade of lavishly ripe,
full-bodied, opulent fruit, soft tannins, and a voluptuous finish. This is a
decadent Palmer, unparalleled since in quality with the exception of 1983 and
1989.
(Robert Parker - Wine Advocate - Oct 94)
