Description
Discover Château Palmer 2016, a premier expression from one of Bordeaux's esteemed Third Growth estates in the Margaux appellation. This French red wine captures the refined essence of its storied origins, where tradition meets the promise of memorable moments shared over dinner or quiet evenings.
Crafted in Bordeaux, this 750 ml bottle holds a harmonious blend of 47% Merlot, 47% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 6% Petit Verdot, delivering 13.5% ABV in a dry profile perfect for discerning palates. Its deep garnet-purple hue draws you in, revealing layers on the nose: think blueberry compote alongside warm cassis and kirsch, touched by violets, cigar box, black tea, sandalwood, and a whisper of Sichuan pepper.
In the mouth, expect a medium to full-bodied richness that builds with concentration. Velvety tannins, super-ripe and inviting, pair with vibrant freshness, leading to a lingering finish alive with floral and earthy tones. Critics rave about this vintage—Jeb Dunnuck, Vinous, and Wine Enthusiast each award it 100 points, while Decanter, James Suckling, and Wine Advocate grant 98 points—affirming its place among elite Margaux wines.
Ideal for cellaring, reach for it from 2026 through 2050 as it evolves. To savor fully, decant for at least two hours and serve at 15.5°C (60°F), perhaps alongside roasted meats or aged cheeses that complement its depth. Whether marking a celebration or elevating everyday luxury, Château Palmer 2016 stands ready to impress, offering complexity that unfolds with every sip.
This Margaux gem invites you to experience Bordeaux's timeless allure. Secure your bottle and let its elegance transform your collection.
