Description

2012 Château Palmer, Margaux, BordeauxThe annual release of 10 year old Chteau Palmer, and this time it's an often underrated but delicious vintage that sits in the shadow of the most prestigious years of the last decade. Proof of how slowly this wine ages, it is packed with blueberry and cassis fruits, a shot of mint leaf, mandarin peel, sage and dark chocolate, with shoulders and a serious architecture, bigger than you might expect for a vintage with such an easy drinking, gourmet

and a creamy rich palate which underwrites the astonishing complexity of what is supposed to be the junior wine

incredibly elegant and fine

pear and minerals form its core

a celebratory toast or after a takeaway pizza

Never one to be satisfied

inviting Comtes that should also continue to develop nicely in the bottle for at least another decade plus

This is excellent

The buttery richness of raw short crust pastry is foremost on the nose

opulent fruit and a marvellously long finish

somewhat paradoxically

he has added the extra dimension of micro-parcel selection and exceptionally low yields

Sir Winston is all about subtle balance
