Wine With Bok - 9.75/10 Stars
IRON FIST IN A VELVET GLOVE
Even though Palmer is considered one of the best in Margaux region, nothing beats the finesse of its only first growth chateau. Aromas of sweet blackberry and black cherries, dusty cedar wood, spice and leather. Palate was filled with black fruits, elegant but strong underlying tannind and lively acidity that ended with a powerful finish.(4/2018)
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 96 Points
Chateau Margaux remains one of the most compelling, indeed most delicious First Growths. Deeper in color than its peers, there bouquet is vibrant and vivacious with succulent red fruits, date, a touch of iodine and violets and as before, further aeration reveals those classic pencil lead aromas. The palate is exquisitely balanced, focused and powerful and yet brilliant defined with a sublime talcum finish, a hint of exotic fruit on the finish. Divine. (5/2010)
