Ch Palmer 3rd Cru - Margaux

This vinyard, named after a British general who entered Bordeaux with his army in 1814 and subsequently bought the estate, is one of Bordeaux' greatest wines. This is a gloriously opulent, low acid, fleshy Palmer that will be attractive early and will keep well. Dark ruby/purple colored, with smoky, toasty new oak with decent concentration, some noticeable tannins with gobs of jammy cherry fruit, and floral and chocolate nuances, this wine is plump yet elegant.
