Château Palmer 3ème Cru Classé 2018 is an iconic red wine from Margaux in Bordeaux, France, uniting depth, elegance, and classic French finesse in an exclusive and refined expression. The 2018 vintage presents itself as an intense and harmonious wine with great concentration, silky-smooth structure, and that special combination of power and elegance that has made Château Palmer one of the most sought-after names in Margaux.

On the nose, the wine opens with complex nuances of blackcurrant, dark cherry, plum, and violet, beautifully complemented by cedar, tobacco, spices, and a subtle hint of dark chocolate. The aromatic profile is deep, sophisticated, and inviting, with a beautiful balance between ripe fruit and classic Bordeaux character. The taste is full-bodied, concentrated, and silky-smooth with fine tannins, excellent freshness, and a long, persistent finish where dark fruit, spice, and minerality elegantly emerge. The result is a wine with great precision, complexity, and impressive aging potential.

Château Palmer 2018 pairs particularly well with beef, lamb, game, duck, braised dishes, and mature cheeses. It is an obvious choice for those seeking a great Bordeaux with depth, elegance, and classic Margaux character. A wine for special dinners, collectors, and wine lovers who desire a bottle with personality, finesse, and great potential for development.

98 /100

The 2018 Palmer is composed of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 7% Petit Verdot. The wine has a 3.83 pH and 14.3% alcohol. Very deep garnet-purple in color, it explodes from the glass with atomic scents of blackberry preserves, crème de cassis and blueberry pie, plus suggestions of red roses, clove oil, dark chocolate and cedar chest with hints of Chinese five spice and menthol. The full-bodied palate is decadently styled, offering layer upon layer of black fruit preserves and exotic spices, framed by exquisitely plush tannins and seamless freshness, finishing wonderfully fragrant and with epic length. It's an amazingly beautiful beast of a wine—one for the hedonists!

100 /100

A memorable vintage for both good and bad reasons, with yields that dropped down to 11h/h after mildew, but with a concentration and precision that is remarkable. This truly is a brilliant wine. There are hints of dried fruit character, wrapped in the complexity of a wine stacked with cigar box, ripe berry fruit, dark chocolate, marmalade zest, turmeric and black pepper spice, layer upon layer, all served up with fresh acidity that make it moreish at the same time. Unusual, and beautiful. Harvest September 13 to October 15, 60% new oak.

About the grape

Rød Bordeaux Blend

Rød Bordeaux Blend er en kombination af de druesorter, der traditionelt bruges til Bordeaux' berømte rødvine. Det er ikke en officiel betegnelse, men en praktisk måde at tale om en vinsstil, der nu dyrkes over hele verden – fra Californien til Australien, Sydafrika til Chile.

Essensen er fleksibilitet: typisk en blend af Cabernet Sauvignon og Merlot, ofte suppleret med Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot og Malbec. Hver drue tilfører noget unikt – struktur, frugt, krydderier eller blødhed.

Rød Bordeaux Blend er for dig, der søger kraftfuld struktur og dybe smagsnuancer. Det er vine med personlighed – nogle kan nydes straks, andre udvikler sig smukt gennem årene. Her får du en vinsstil med historisk fundament, der stadig inspirerer vinmagere verden over.

Serving

Rød Bordeaux Blend serveres bedst ved 16-18°C, hvor vinens frugt, struktur og kompleksitet står skarpest. Serveres den for varm, kan alkoholen virke mere dominerende, mens for lav temperatur dæmper aromaerne. Bordeaux anbefaler selv 16-18°C til strukturerede og lagringsværdige rødvine.
