Later that evening. More astutely black fruit aromas and more concealed than the 2009 Palmer. Grilled bread aromas. Medium plus tannin still, really coiled. Ripe tannin, but still generous and in need of time to resolve. Approachable all the same. Mineral laced palate and loads of freshness, not feeling hard, but just in need of space/time/air.

After half of the day open, this is just singing…red and black fruit aromas, mingled with emerging mature notes. A little earth, not too mineral. Much more harmony over the 2012, still relatively wound up. Here, almost the richness of coconut oil, but coming up short of it. Earth, sillage, fruit, lightly gunflint tinged. This is excellent Palmer…
