Château Palmer--Vintage 1989
Cantenac (Margaux), 3me cru classé
Lot 52 slightly bin-soiled labels, two slightly damaged. Lots 53 & 54 slightly bin-soiled labels
Tasting note: One of the superstars of the vintage, Palmers 1989 retains a dark plum/purple colour with some pink and a hint of amber creeping in at the rim. A big nose of charcoal, white flowers (acacia?), liquorice, plums, and blackcurrants comes from the glass of this elegant, medium to full-bodied, very concentrated, seamlessly made wine. Gorgeous and seemingly fully mature yet brilliantly balanced, this wine may well turn out to be a modern-day clone of the glorious 1953. Anticipated maturity: Now-2020. Last tasted, Last tasted, 5/02. Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 4th Edn Jan 2003
