Wine Advocate# 146 (4/1/2003) Rating: 96points Drink: 2008-2030
This has turned out to be a prodigious Palmer. The saturated purple color offers up sexy, full-bodied, almost masculine notes of roasted meats, blackberries, and creme de cassis intermixed with notions of toast, smoke, and camphor. Only 50% of the production made it into the 2000, a blend of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon and 47% Merlot. The wine is opulent, rich, and full-bodied, with tannin that has become sweeter with age. Its best showing yet, most importantly, has been from bottle. This is a great Palmer that should rival the best of recent vintages, which have all been stunning, as this estate continues to go from strength to strength. -Robert Parker
Wine Spectator (3/31/2003) Score: 97
This takes time to unwind, but then it explodes with fruit and powerful, yet silky tannins. Perfumed and rich, with berry, cherry and tobacco character. Full-bodied, with super well-integrated tannins and a reduced, refined palate structure. It's compact and powerful. Very racy wine.
Decanter Rating：
Huge colour, almost black but still clear and vibrant, rich and smoky with great presence and almost firm and grippy for Palmer, superbly ripe tannins and high proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon make this an absolute classic. Ready 2006-2025. (Tasted en primeur) |
