1997 Ch. Palmer

Deep purple with close to pronounced level noses of blackcurrant, earth, violet, licorice, black plum, fig and dried blackberry, quite fruity. It is dry with medium acidity, alcohol and quite full bodied. Tannin is quite high and a bit coarse. On palate it has slightly over medium intensity flavours of blackcurrant, bell pepper, licoirce, dried herb and earth. Fairly long length with blackberry finish. (91)

果香豐富得有點令我出奇，酒體也很豐厚，口感滿滿的，只是單寧有點點"鞋"口。酒味的強度與複雜性也不錯，餘韻亦算長，幾好飲。這酒莊在較差的年份往往造出令人印象深刻的酒，包括這枝。
