palate-staining and extraordinarily elegant wine - the quintessential St

Lemon peel

The 2000 Château Margaux remains one of the standouts of the millennial year

It doesn't matter though because your return is so triumphant

that even more of the harvest than usual was up to the mark for this cuvée

2001 Château Palmer, Margaux, Bordeaux Size:75cl palate-staining and extraordinarily elegant wineThis wine has a beautiful perfume of primary woodland black and red fruits, its seductive aroma of polished Bordeaux just emerging from its shell. Cool and composed on the palate there's a beguiling sweetness too that is so typical of Margaux, and indeed Ch. Palmer itself. This wine is elegance and precision personified. Decant for an hour before serving at 17 to 19 degrees, which will help to preserve its lovely freshness. (Simon Staples Fine Wine
