From one of Margaux’s most esteemed estates, Château Palmer’s 2019 vintage stands as a true testament to the elegance and depth this iconic appellation is known for. The 2019 is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot that showcases Margaux’s signature balance between power and finesse, with the richness of the fruit tempered by the grace of the terroir.

The wine opens with an aromatic complexity of dark fruits—blackcurrant, plum—combined with a floral lift of violet and subtle hints of tobacco and cedar. On the palate, it’s full-bodied but remarkably smooth, with tannins that are fine and velvety. The acidity is perfectly integrated, providing freshness and balance to the concentrated fruit, while the finish is long, with lingering notes of dark chocolate, spice, and the unmistakable minerality that defines Margaux.

Château Palmer 2019 is a wine built to evolve, with the potential to age beautifully over the next two decades. It pairs effortlessly with a variety of dishes, from roasted meats and game to aged cheeses, but is equally compelling on its own. Whether enjoyed now or cellared, this wine offers a refined expression of Margaux’s ability to produce wines that are both powerful and elegant.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2019 Palmer was always going to be stylistically a completely different kettle of fish than the preceding vintage. It was bottled in early August 2021. As winemaker Thomas Duroux foretold, it’s a much more classically styled Palmer, offering blackberry, briary and pressed iris petals scents rather than violet, along with a distinct marine influence; a touch of sea spray comes through with time. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, tightly knit on the entry, and very fresh and saline, with just a very slight bitter edginess toward the almost Côte de Nuits–like finish (especially returning to my glass after 20 minutes). Quintessential Palmer, this will require 4–6 years in bottle." —Vinous

"The 2019 Palmer is a rich, dramatic wine that soars from the glass with aromas of cherries, blackberries and berry fruit liqueur mingled with notions of violets, rose petals and sweet spices. Full-bodied, layered and seamless, it's powerful and immensely concentrated, with an enveloping core of lively fruit that largely conceals the wine's ripe, powdery structuring tannins. Concluding with a long, penetrating finish, it's a brilliant rendition of the contemporary Palmer style from Thomas Duroux and his team."

"A joyous wine that bristles with zest and energy. Clearly not the super-concentration of the 2018 (when the mildew-reduced yield was only 11 hl/ha), but rich and profound and a degree more elegant. Morello cherry and dark-fruit aromas. Beautiful texture, the tannins present but refined. Fresh and vibrant with a long, palate-cleansing finish."

Decanter

98 points

"Iris and violet aromatics swirl out of the glass. In the mouth, things are velvet in texture and packed with concentrated cassis puree and blackberry fruit, gentle spice, soft charcoal and sappy tannins, with the whole thing just slowly slowly expanding and building through the palate, tightening its grip as it reaches the close of play. The Palmer signature of energy and precision is here in spades, and altogether the wine is both measured and elegant, with textbook floral Margaux character, while being extremely juicy, creamy and enjoyable, with a mouthwatering salinity on the finish - up there with the very best vintages of this estate."

More about Chateau Palmer

Margaux's best-kept treasure is privately owned and run with an exactitude that borders on perfectionism. Palmer makes wines that seem to hover between the elegance of the appellation and the richness of the vintage—a perfect balance that's deceptively hard to achieve.
