Alter Ego, Château Palmer 2021

CHF 75.00 (75cl)

Colour

Purple red with purplish reflections.

Nose

Silky but intense aromas of ripe black fruits.

Palate

Soft and velvety entry in the mouth, medium structure with well-integrated tannins, well balanced, long and aromatic finish.

Wine-growing terroir

The Château Palmer vineyard covers 55 hectares spread over the sheep hills of the commune of Cantenac. Most of the plots are concentrated on a plateau of lean gravel from the Güntz era, located at the top of the ridges of the Margaux appellation.

Winemaking

The grapes having arrived at the cellar at temperatures a little higher than normal, it was necessary to cool the harvest. These efforts were rewarded since the tastings revealed batches of very high quality distinguished by their freshness, density and finesse.

Château Palmer

Located on a historic site, Château Palmer perpetuates the vinification of vintages with respect for the land, its vineyard and its wines. The Château Palmer terroir includes 3 pillars: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Verdot. In 2008, the first biodynamic experiments were carried out, which put an end to monoculture.
