Star of Margaux: Château Palmer Vertical
Monday 16 December 2013
,
On Monday 16th December 2013 Thomas Duroux, Director of Château Palmer, will be showcasing an exceptional presentation of the estate's Grand Vin and Second Label: Palmer and Alter Ego de Palmer.
He will cover the key vintages that best represent both the terroir and the recent, stylistic developments at this prized 3ème Cru Classé Margaux estate.
Since 1998, the Château has also been producing a second label, not a second wine, Alter Ego de Palmer, selected from the same quality terroirs, but employing different wine-making techniques and different proportions of grapes, in order to produce an earlier-drinking wine.
