Product Description
VM93 "The 1985 Palmer is another vintage that I have not met for a little while. This is clearly a step up from the 1982 on the nose, even if not a match for the 1983. This blossoms in the glass with brambly red fruit, thyme, rose petals and touches of Earl Grey tea. The palate is fully mature, yet there is substance and density here, fine acidity, well balanced with hints of tobacco and dark chocolate towards the finish. Blind, you might well guess a Saint-Émilion from the same year! Thoroughly enjoyable, and I can guarantee that you will finish a bottle. Pure pleasure. Tasted at the Palmer vertical at the château."
