CHâTEAU PALMER 1997

PRODUCER NOTES

Third growth Château Palmer is frequently touted as a possible candidate for promotion to first growth status because of its consistently outstanding performance. In its greatest vintages it can outshine everything else. The ’61, for example, is described by Broadbent as possessing an ‘indescribably lovely bouquet and flavour. Perfection’. He goes on to give it six stars out of five, a very rare distinction placing it above all other 61’s.

A vertical tasting we held in 2008 confirmed that even in lesser vintages, this is an exceptional claret.

The second wine, Alter Ego de Palmer, is described as an alternative interpretation of the same vineyard, being more modern in character and a classy wine all on its own.
