The intensity and subtle texture of an iconic Margaux
The property
Third Grand Cru Classé in the Official Classification of 1855, Château Palmer is a true star of the Margaux appellation, on the left bank of the Bordeaux region. With beginnings in biodynamics initiated in 2009, Château Palmer chose to convert the entire vineyard as of 2014. After building its legend on vintages that have become mythical, Château Palmer continues to write its history under the direction of the talented Thomas Duroux.
The vineyard
Benefiting from an exceptional terroir located in the immediate vicinity of the Gironde estuary, this Margaux property has a rather unusual grape variety in Médoc, giving pride of place to merlot (47%), which is alongside cabernet sauvignon in equal proportions (47%) associated with petit verdot (6%).
The vintage
The 2019 vintage brilliantly confirms the excellence of the work carried out by the technical teams on the property. Started on September 19 with the merlots and ending on October 11, the harvests of Château Palmer revealed sublime berries. The merlots displayed a beautiful exuberance while the cabernet sauvignons and the petit verdot showed exceptional finesse. In the end, 2019 reveals wines faithful to the terroir of Château Palmer and which will once again enter the history of the property's very great vintages.
Blend
Merlot (43%), cabernet sauvignon (53%), petit verdot (4%).
Characteristics and tasting advice for Château Palmer 2019
Tasting
Color
Deep purple color.
Nose
Captivating, the aromatic bouquet bursts from the glass and perfumes with its notes of black fruits and spices.
Palate
The palate, on the other hand, displays this silky and almost carnal texture faithful to the style of Château Palmer. The tannic structure reveals itself on the palate, displaying this delicate finesse remarkable for its depth and relief. Already, the complexity, structure and richness foreshadow the birth of a vintage ready to cross the decades and which embodies without artifice but with brilliance the identity of this exceptional Margaux terroir.
