Château Palmer
Palmer is a mosaic of terroirs and soils, a picturesque château with multiple towers, and a wine of unmistakable character that has become one of the icons of the Margaux appellation. While no other great Left Bank estate specializes in Merlot, at Palmer it is considered the key variety. The vineyards of Château Palmer are rich in a unique clay-gravel blend, which lends the Merlot its signature elegance and grace while preserving its quintessential velvety texture."It boasts a truly sensational bouquet—so much so that in great vintages, it can be identified by aroma alone," claims Robert Parker. Quality has always been Palmer’s top priority. Here, they would rather forgo a problematic vintage entirely than produce a mediocre wine and blame the flaws on the weather. Yet the estate’s relentless, uncompromising pursuit of perfection in winemaking allows it to craft extraordinary wines in any given year.
