1961 Chateau Palmer Mahler-Besse - 99 Pts!
The 1961 Palmer has long been considered to be a legend from this vintage and its reputation is well-deserved. The wine is at its apogee with an extraordinary sweet complex nose with aromas of flowers cassis toast and minerals. It is intensely concentrated offering a cascade of lavishly ripe full-bodied opulent fruit soft tannins and a voluptuous finish. This is a decadent Palmer unparalleled since in quality with the exception of 1983 and 1989. RP
