Château Palmer--Vintage 2005
Cantenac (Margaux), 3me cru classé
In original wooden case
Tasting note: This spectacular offering should continue to improve, and may merit an even higher score after additional ageing. Stunningly rich and powerful, the dark purple-tinged 2005 Palmer is a blend of 53 Cabernet Sauvignon, 40 Merlot, and 7 Petit Verdot. Aromas of incense, burning embers, black currants, plums, liquorice, and flowers are followed by a full-bodied Margaux with more weight and power even than its nearby first-growth rival, Château Margaux. The abundant acidity and tannins are beautifully coated by the wine's exceptional fruit extract and overall harmony and richness. It is so concentrated that one is hard pressed to find even a hint of new oak. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 176, April 2008
