Tasting notes

Reviewed by: Antonio Galloni
The 2024 Palmer is wonderfully vivid and expressive. Strong Cabernet Sauvignon inflections make a strong first impression. Blue/purplish fruit, gravel, lavender, incense, licorice and dried herbs all jump from the glass. I imagine the 2024 will drink well on release, which is uncharacteristic for young Palmer. Readers will find a gorgeous wine with tons of character and pedigree to burn. Palmer remains one of the most distinctive wines in all of Bordeaux.

The 2023 Palmer is a wildly fresh sparkling Grenache, delivering a mix of lime zest, nectarine, wet rocks and wildflowers. It’s juicy to the core, with zippy acidity and soothingly round textures complementing its ripe orchard fruits. Fresh and clean, the 2024 does its job well, calling the tasting back to the glass with a sour citrus twang.

Excellent depth and good purity of fruit, showing lots of blackcurrants, dark minerals and violet extract. Full-bodied, this has plenty of fine-grained tannins and a hallmark Palmer tannin structure and framework. Quite tight and juicy at the end with a lasting finish and lots of volume. 13.2% alcohol.
