Chateau Palmer Vin Blanc De Palmer 2021

With origins tracing back to the 17th century, Château Palmer, located on the Left Bank of Bordeaux, was initially classified as a third growth in the renowned 1855 classification. However, its consistent quality has elevated Palmer to the status of a top ‘Super Second’. In its appellation, Palmer is often compared to its first growth neighbor, Château Margaux, and its wines are revered as some of the finest in Bordeaux. Nestled in the commune of Cantenac, the estate boasts 66 hectares of vineyards situated on a gravel terrace overlooking the Gironde estuary. The vineyard is evenly divided between Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon (47% each), with a small portion of Petit Verdot (6%) adding balance. Palmer’s relatively high Merlot content sets it apart from other Grands Crus of the Médoc, contributing to its distinctive style on the Left Bank.
