Palmer Alter Ego 600cl 2016

HED65321 600cl 13.5%
First released in 1998, Alter Ego de Palmer is the second wine of Margaux Third Growth, Château Palmer. It was created to be as equally terroir-driven and expressive as the grand vin, but would be supple, rounded and more approachable in youth. From the excellent 2016 vintage, this is a rich and exuberant release composed of 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 12% Petit Verdot. This should enter its drinking window in the next year or so and should evolve nicely over the next 15-20 years.

Chateau Palmer

Chateau Palmer

Château Palmer is a 3ème Cru Classé property and is one of the most celebrated estates in the Margaux appellation in Bordeaux, renowned for producing rich and opulent wines with exceptional longevity. The 55 hectare estate is characterised by its mixture of fine and sandy gravels, together with clay soils. The key grape varieties are old vine Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, all farmed biodynamically, resulting in superbly elegant, velvety wines with a wonderful capacity to age and evolve in bottle.

In addition to the first wine, Château Palmer, the estate produces a second red from specific plots, Alter Ego de Palmer. Created to be as equally terroir-driven and expressive as the Grand Vin, the Alter Ego is supple, rounded and more approachable in youth.
