Chateau Palmer 3eme Cru Classe Margaux
Description: The Palmer estate was created in the early 19th century by General Palmer, with the Pereire family building the present Chateau around 1856. The property now belongs to French, English and Dutch families. The perfect synergy between the soils and grape varieties explains Chateau Palmer's exquisite finesse. The grapes are picked only when very ripe and are carefully sorted in the vineyard so that only the ripest, healthiest ones go to be crushed. Merlot brings roundness and fruitiness, Cabernet Sauvignon adds structure, length and elegance while Petit Verdot imparts colour and body which all contributes to the end wine. Stainless steel tanks in the traditional truncated cone shape are ideal for extracting fruit and tannin. During blending, only the best vats are retained to be sold under the prestigious name of Chateau Palmer. Oak barrels . Gunzian gravel . "An outstanding success for the vintage...This is a layered, concentrated, yet surprisingly velvety-textured Palmer..." Parker, . The growing season was complimented by an extraordinarily fine summer. Very hot and dry in August with relatively few grapes on the vines. The fruit was very ripe by mid-September, both in terms of sugar and phenolic maturity. The incessant rain that followed slightly diluted sugar levels, without affecting the phenolic compounds or the quality of the grapes. The tannin was easy to extract during fermentation. The three grape varieties combined to provide excellent structure, while maintaining Palmer's legendary elegance. The blend consists of 52% Merlot, 43% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petit Verdot. Deep, dark colour, which does not yet show any sign of age. The bouquet has become more complex and concentrated. with hints of black fruit, spice, tobacco, leather, prune, and vanilla. Powerful, concentrated, and elegant, with impressive structure, length, and tannins. Everything seems to indicate that this wine will age beautifully. Available in Original Wooden Case. (12 x 75 cl)

"An outstanding success for the vintage...This is a layered, concentrated, yet surprisingly velvety-textured Palmer..." Parker, . Due to the particularly damp and humid conditions that prevailed in spring, all vinegrowers were particularly vigilant in the first part of the year. In fact, summer only really came in mid july, although from then the grapes ripened gently and slowly. Drought conditions persisted right up to harvest time and although the levels of sugar did not quite reach those of 1999, the richness and maturity of the phenolic compounds was astonishing. The quality of the fruit, along with imensely ripe tanins and sufficient acidity have produced a truly great Margaux with a long life expectancy. The 2000 Palmer tastes absolutely delicious at present, despite being bottled in July 2002. It has an impenetrable crimson colour showing no evolution. The nose has the characteristic blackcurrant, raspberry, and plum overtones of young wine, coupled with subtle smoky, coffee, and tobacco hints. The flavour of the wine has barely changed. Its structure and texture are still very tight, but the tannins are quite silky. These give the wine good length, and overlay an excellent fresh, lingering aftertaste. The quality of the tannins gives every indication of a great, rich, full-bodied, and complex wine with excellent ageing potential. Available in Original Case. (12 x 75 cl)

"An outstanding success for the vintage...This is a layered, concentrated, yet surprisingly velvety-textured Palmer..." Parker, . The growth cycle got off to a good start in March after an especially mild and wet winter. Fortunately, the fairly cool weather in April eliminated the risk of mildew. Thanks to mild, very dry weather, flowering took place quickly and evenly in May and June, mid-flowering on June 2nd. After a cool and particularly rainy month of July, the véraison occured without any problems before a major storm hit on August 15th . The month of August was hot, but not excessively so. It was once again cool in September . The grapes were ideally ripe and healthy on the eve of the harvest. Sugar levels were high (12 x 75 cl)

Chateau Dauzac 5eme Cru Classe Margaux
Description: Chateau Dauzac was classified a great growth in 1855, however, wine growing would appear to go back to the thirteenth century. However, it was necessary to wait until the arrival of Thomas Michel Lynch in 1740 for the vines to be consolidated into the beautiful vineyard that we know today. In more recent time the chateau was bought by the MAIF insurance company in 1988, and in 1992 they handed over the running of the estate and the Presidency of the Board of Directors to Andre Lurton. Now in charge, it is Andre Lurton's reponsibiltiy to produce the wine from the 45 hectares of 15-20 year old vines. From the vineyard to the winery great care is taken in producing this wine from the manual harvest to table sorting both before and after destemming quality is always the driving force. Made from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon 58%, Merlot 37% and a little Cabernet Franc 5% this wine will splend 12 months in oak barrels with racking each trimester and fined using eggwhites. Decanter considered: 'Dauzac obtains the best mark among all Medoc Classified Growth; 17.5. Aromatic and complex, quite oaky. Silky, sweet, explosive fruit, firm tannins and lovely acidity. Elegant and poised will be very good 2-10 years. It is interesting to note that Ernest Davis, who was the manager of both Dauzac and Ducru Beaucaillou, perfected the famous bouillie bordelaise here in 1885 with the help if Professor Alexis Millardet.
