Chateau Palmer is a classified Third Growth in the Margaux Appelation of Bordeaux. The property is situated in the communes Margaux and Cantenac, and its wine is considered to be one of the two most popular Third Growths alongside Chateau Calon Segur

Since 2004, Palmer has been managed by Thomas Duroux, formerly a winemaker of Tenuta Dell'Ornellaia

Grape Blend: 48% Merlot, 46% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Petit Verdot

"Château Palmer is one of the vintage's superstars. Opaque purple, with a gorgeous nose of blueberry, blackberry fruit, licorice, incense and graphite, the wine has a multi-dimensional, skyscraper-like richness, stunningly well-integrated acidity, tannin, wood, and alcohol, a finish of close to 45 seconds and a full-bodied mouthfeel. This is a great wine from Margaux in 2012 and one of the vintage's most remarkable efforts. Anticipated maturity: 2022-2040+

- Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Best paired with all types of classic meat dishes, veal, pork, beef, lamb, duck, game, roast chicken, roasted, braised, and grilled dishes. Also good when matched with Asian dishes and rich fish courses like tuna.
