2015 Chateau Palmer 3eme Cru Classe, Margaux 3x150cl

There’s only one Bordeaux, isn’t there? Still the benchmark, and names like Latour, Margaux, Haut-Brion, and Pétrus resonate with drinkers everywhere. But it’s important to note that it’s not just about the ‘bling’ – indeed, the top estate make up a tiny proportion of the region’s production. Away from the fairy tale châteaux, thousands of small growers also work their magic, making excellent (and improving) whites, as well as the reds that the British came to call ‘claret’.
