Description
Behind every great wine is a great terroir. This is also the case with Château Palmer, which is located on a long strip of land between the Atlantic Ocean and the Gironde estuary. The land is well-drained, rich in the deposits of the Garonne and Dordogne rivers, but washed clean of organic matter. It is difficult soil for agriculture, but exceptional for grape growing. Of course, the vines also need good care to perform optimally. And that is certainly entrusted to the employees of Château Palmer! With passion and love for the vines, they work the demanding terroir. The men and women of this winery are more than just colleagues. Together they embrace the common core values of Château Palmer and are therefore extremely dynamic, curious, passionate, open-minded and determined. In short, they live for and with the vineyards.
The 2019 Palmer Alter Ego from Château Palmer in Margaux is composed of 51% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and 9% Petit Verdot. Deep garnet purple in colour, the Alter Ego d comes out of the glass with vibrant black raspberries, black cherries and crushed blackcurrants, plus hints of black and white pepper, menthol, pencil lead and cardamom. Medium-bodied, very elegant for a Margaux. The palate is charged with energy, with expressive, bright black fruit and firm, fine-grained tannins, which finish long and lively. Certainly does not need as many years as its big brother before it is ready to drink and can certainly be cellared until 2040.
