title: Château Palmer 2009 Barrel sample  (Margaux)
description: 98-100 Barrel sample. Sumptuous, opulent, with gorgeous ripe fruit, and yet under 14 percent alcohol. The firm tannins are almost smothered by the delicious fruits. It is a great wine that expresses both the natural exuberance of Palmer and the rich fruit and balancing freshness of the vintage.
variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend
designation: Barrel sample
