Alter Ego de Palmer

Alter Ego de Palmer Margaux 2019 0,75l

Alter Ego de Palmer is the characterful second wine of Château Palmer in Margaux, yet it has developed a very distinct identity. The blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot combines classic Margaux elegance with juicy, modern fruit. On the nose it reveals dark berries, plum, violets and subtle spice and cedar notes. The palate is dense and silky yet lively, with ripe tannins and precise freshness. Its style is more approachable in youth than the grand vin, while still offering plenty of depth and complexity. A multi-layered Bordeaux that unites the finesse of Margaux with great drinkability and charm.

18 months of barrique ageing with a moderate share of new oak preserves the fruit and gives the wine gentle length.
