2021 Château Palmer ‘Alter Ego’ Margaux Médoc

WS90-91 This is super for a second wine. Spicy and delicious. Shows loads of fruit, with fine tannins and a long finish. Very pretty and juicy. Second wine of Château Palmer.

WA92 Bursting with aromas of blackberries, mint, violets and pencil shavings, the 2021 Alter Ego de Palmer is medium to full-bodied, rich and layered, with impressive density and ripeness for the vintage, its deep core of fruit framed by sweet, powdery tannin. Like the grand vin, it’s a very strong effort this year
