98 Points

Friday, May 13, 2022 - Cork semi-wet. Funky on opening, needs 2-3 hrs in decanter. Dense colour, ruby red w brownish tinge. Edge brown. Fantastic bq w dark red fruit, liquorice, sweet chocolate, leather, tobacco, dried flowers. Full body, integrated tannins, still fresh acidity. Elegant and fully balanced. The Margaux smoothness is omnipresent. It is of course fully mature, will last longer (but we doubt it will get better). Complex aftertaste, but here lies the missing 2 points. Best Palmer we've ever had!!
