Château Palmer--Vintage 1978
Cantenac (Margaux), 3ème cru classé
Levels: top shoulder; lightly corroded capsules
In original wooden case
"One of the Medocs most successful 1978s, this wine has reached full maturity, but it reveals no signs of an early demise. The color is a dark ruby/garnet with only slight amber at the edge. The nose offers up black truffle, cassis, smoked herbs, and meaty aromas. In the mouth, there is a green pepper quality to the rich, sweet fruit. This medium-bodied, silky-textured wine is more spice-driven than most Palmers, but attractive and mouthfilling." Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition Jan 1998
