Cassis and mocha weave through layers of graphite and violet, building with impressive intensity. The gravelly terroir shows beautifully, lending mineral backbone to waves of concentrated fruit. Firm structure demands patience. This needs a full decade to reveal its true elegance.

Palmer

Château Palmer is a third-growth Margaux estate that has long punched well above its 1855 classification, producing wines of uncommon aromatic complexity, silkiness, and aging potential across both its grand vin and second label Alter Ego.
