Château Palmer--Vintage 1979
1 dozen bottles per lot
Château Palmer--Vintage 1979 Cantenac (Margaux), 3ème cru classé Levels: top shoulder; corroded capsules In original wooden case "Continuing its run of well above average wines. Half a dozen consistent notes from the mid-1980s: glorious colour; fleshy ripe fruitiness on both nose and - for a '79 - on palate. Endorsed by my most recent note though its tannin now laid bare - a lean, attenuated, spicy, teeth-gripping finish. Good length. Needs food." Last noted at the 'exponential' (I keep having to look this word up) tasting in New York, Dec 1998 *** MB, Vintage Wine 1 dozen bottles per lot
