Chateau Palmer 1989 Margaux, 3eme Cru Classe u: bottom neck, one label slightly scuffed, light bin wear to capsules, light bin soil to all "Tasted at the Château Palmer vertical in London, the 1989 Château Palmer has always been my favourite vintage from that decade after the 1983. The first bottle was unfortunately corked. The second was as it should be: the nose tensile with red berries, sous-bois, potpourri and strawberry pastille - lively and energetic. The palate is medium-bodied and vibrant right from the start, silky in texture with plenty of citrus fruit, gently building to a harmonious and detailed finish that lingers in the mouth. This is a magnificent Château Palmer that continues to effortlessly dish out so much vinous pleasure." N. Martin for TWA, 96 pts. 05/16 4 bottles
