Bordeaux Total René Gabriel:

(Assemblage aus 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 43% Merlot und 4% Petit Verdot. Verkostet am 22. Juli auf Château Palmer). Dichtes Rubin, Intensive Nase, nussig, viele reife, dunkle Früche, dazu Weihnachtsgewürze, florale Noten, auch eingekochte Kirschen, Tee, sehr komplex. Im Gaumen kräftig, druckvoll, sehr dicht und konzentriert, bleibt dabei aber ausgewogen, die sensationelle Struktur harmoniert mit der üppigen Frucht, ungemein präzis, sehr eigenständig und langanhaltend. Endet dunkelfruchtig und zeigt viel Rasse. Wenn Château Margaux die Lady ist, ist Palmer der noble Herr an ihrer Seite. Bewertung 96-98/100. –Adrian van Velsen – vvwine.ch & VINUM–

Robert Parker Wine Advocate:

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. Drink Date 2027-2065. Rating 96+/100. –William Kelley–

Vinous:

The 2019 Palmer is beautifully defined on the nose with pencil lead infused black fruit, crushed stone, and hints of pressed flowers. Amazingly well focused. The palate is medium-bodied with supple and exquisitely sculpted tannins, unerring symmetry with a crescendo towards the utterly harmonious and persistent finish. This exudes a sense of completeness. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting. Drink Date 2026-2065. Rating 99/100. –Neal Martin–

James Suckling:

So much sweet tobacco, stone, brambleberry and currant on the nose. The palate is full and compact with very polished tannins, yet they are solid and sturdy and run the length and width of the wine. Energetic acidity. Very structured and powerful, yet agile and impressive. Historic feel. From biodynamically grown grapes. This needs at least six years of bottle age to soften. Try after 2027.

Jancis Robinson:

Tasted blind. Deep, glowing crimson. Intense and intriguing. Sweet start, and very long and dramatic. Polished tannins here in abundance and a certain glow. Incredible length. Nuances on the finish. Something minerally, too. So long! Rating 19/20. –Jancis Robinson–
