@Doug Powers A good pull Doug. That would have been a mouthful of intense flavours.

@Bob McDonald, my wife and I met Bill Chambers back in 1989, he actually took us outside the tasting room where they kept the AMAZING super old vine stickies and let us taste them — his comment then was “that nice Mr. Parker has really increased the demand for our sweet wines with his kind words” — those top end wines all those years ago drew us back a couple times already, and it’s 14+ hours in the air from the West Coast (CA)!!!

Château Palmer

Vin Blanc de Palmer Vin de Table White Bordeaux Blend 2021

Nice experience but not worth the money. Strong initial funk that eventually gave way to some fruit. Silky mouth feel but so many better wines for less money. — 7 months ago

@Doug Powers yes but its not your traditional white Bordeaux and more a somewhat random cuvee. Like i said: nice to try and experience but wouldnt necessarily recommend
