This wine is refined and polished - a superb effort that is really coming into its own. Still vibrantly Ruby in color, it has a huge bouquet of Violet, mocha, blackberry, blueberry, plum, licorice, cassis, truffle and forest floor. Velvety texture, very polished tannins and the only slight drawback is the finish that only comes in as medium plus. Palmer is now completely biodynamic. Terrific wine

Beastly at the moment . . . Hope to meet it again in old age.

Incredible. Dark dense fruit with spice, licorice and graphite. Long powerful finish.

(17.5/20) Тёмно-рубиновое, почти непрозрачное. Сложный, насыщенный аромат с нотами ежевики, черники, мокрого камня, ментола и ванили. Кислотность высокая, колючая, ещё не интегрированная. Танины лишь начали округляться. Очень молодое вино, всё ещё требующее длительной выдержки. #decanterfwe
