Winemaker's Notes
Chateau Palmer Margaux 2018 presents an exquisite bouquet, rich with the aromas of ripe dark berries, black cherries, and cassis, interwoven with hints of violets and subtle earthy undertones. On the palate, it reveals a profound depth, showcasing velvety tannins and a full-bodied structure. The flavors are complex and layered, featuring a harmonious blend of blackcurrant, plum, and blueberry, accented by notes of cedar, tobacco, and dark chocolate. The wine's acidity is well-balanced, contributing to a remarkably long, elegant finish with a lingering touch of spice and minerality. This vintage demonstrates both power and finesse, promising great aging potential.
Critic Ratings
Jeb Dunnuck Review - Rated 99:
While there's not much to go around, the 2018 Château Palmer is unquestionably a stunning bottle of wine. I certainly can't think of another Palmer coming close to this level of concentration (maybe the 2010 comes closest?). This blockbuster boasts a dense purple hue as well as a primordial bouquet of black cherries, mulberries, and blackberries intermixed with freshly crushed rocks, smoke tobacco, gravelly earth, lead pencil shavings, and burning embers. With full-bodied richness, a dense, stacked mid-palate, mouth coating tannin's, and a blockbuster of a finish, it's going to need 10-15 years to hit maturity, and as I wrote last year, will live for just about forever.
