The 2005 Palmer, picked from September 9 to October 10, remains deep in color. It has a lovely, intense bouquet with blackcurrant pastilles, raspberry, violet and juniper. It blossoms in the glass, gaining vigor. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, structured and dense, strangely Pomerol-like in style, with touches of black pepper and truffle furnishing the finish. Robust and muscular, it lacks a bit of flair and precision (like many wines of this vintage). I would afford this another couple of years in the cellar. Tasted at the Palmer vertical at the château.

The 2005 Palmer has been absolutely magical both times I have tasted it recently. Still wonderfully deep to the core, the 2005 is dense, packed to the core and luxuriously opulent. Even with all of that intensity, the 2005 remains vibrant. Lush red/purplish berry fruit, rose petal, lavender and sweet spice build into the towering finish. The 2005 is an epic wine that will have no problem reaching its fiftieth birthday. It is a rich, dramatic Margaux that checks all the boxes, and then some. I rated a second bottle even higher.

@Ted Mandes @Christine @Steve Colanero Incredible Palmer!! Still such a baby and blew the socks off of Harlan. Dark fruit black cherry fruits., graphite notes., Floral notes. Christine did not care for the floral notes but I found them intriguing. Minute + finish. Needs a lot of time to integrate and develop but what is being shown Napa w is amazing nonetheless!

Showing so well now, it was double decanted and enjoyed slowly! Tuns of fruit, lovely baking spice and touches of tabaco leaf and herbs.

Bordeaux for CA wine drinkers - ripe, but balanced. Layers of black fruits, dried herbs, mountain cypress, and squid ink.

Little Fuzzy picture! 2005 Ch Palmer from a Great Margaux appellation producer! Thanks. Rich and full bodied with good tannin and loads of deep dark plum and black fruits, also a touch of that Forrest floor commonly found in great Bordeaux . Bravo here, from my notes. CB 95 PS: at Wine Spec in NYC on Thursday Night Opening!
