James Suckling über den Chateau Palmer 2019 Margaux:
11 Nov, 2021 – So much sweet tobacco, stone, brambleberry and currant on the nose. The palate is full and compact with very polished tannins, yet they are solid and sturdy and run the length and width of the wine. Energetic acidity. Very structured and powerful, yet agile and impressive. Historic feel. From biodynamically grown grapes. This needs at least six years of bottle age to soften. Try after 2027.
Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Chateau Palmer 2019 Margaux:
The 2019 Palmer is a truly special wine, but it is also going to need a number of years to be at its finest. Dense and plush, with explosive energy, the 2019 possesses tremendous richness in its dark fruit. As always, the blend features a high percentage of Merlot (43%) which works so well in complementing the savoriness of the Cabernet. Thomas Duroux and his team fashioned another absolutely compelling Palmer in 2019.
Und Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Chateau Palmer 2019 Margaux:
The 2019 Palmer was always going to be stylistically a completely different kettle of fish than the preceding vintage. It was bottled in early August 2021. As winemaker Thomas Duroux foretold, it’s a much more classically styled Palmer, offering blackberry, briary and pressed iris petals scents rather than violet, along with a distinct marine influence; a touch of sea spray comes through with time. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, tightly knit on the entry, and very fresh and saline, with just a very slight bitter edginess toward the almost Côte de Nuits–like finish (especially returning to my glass after 20 minutes). Quintessential Palmer, this will require 4–6 years in bottle.
William Kelley im April 2022:
The 2019 Palmer is a rich, dramatic wine that soars from the glass with aromas of cherries, blackberries and berry fruit liqueur mingled with notions of violets, rose petals and sweet spices. Full-bodied, layered and seamless, it's powerful and immensely concentrated, with an enveloping core of lively fruit that largely conceals the wine's ripe, powdery structuring tannins. Concluding with a long, penetrating finish, it's a brilliant rendition of the contemporary Palmer style from Thomas Duroux and his team.
Für den Wine Spectator verköstigte James Molesworth denChateau Palmer 2019 Margaux:
Shows the powerful fruit of the vintage, with waves of dark plum, warmed cassis and cherry compote flavors driving through, inlaid with a graphite edge and backed by an iron note on the finish. Features good underlying energy and everything is knit tightly, without the toothy grain typical of the vintage. Very solid. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Best from 2024 through 2038.
Der Chateau Palmer 2019 Margaux am Gaumen der Falstaff-Verköstiger:
Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Brombeeren und schwarze Kirschen, ein Hauch von Edelholz und Nougat, feiner nussiger Touch, kandierte Orangenzesten, etwas Lakritze, zart nach Marzipan. Kraftvoll, komplex, engmaschig, schwarze Waldbeeren, finessenreiche Struktur, tragende Tannine, würzig im Abgang, dunkle Frucht im Abgang, sehr gut Länge, wirkt insgesamt noch sehr unentwickelt und zurückhaltend, dezente Süße im Nachhall, ein Vin de Garde, ein Langstreckenläufer, der noch Geduld einfordert. (2030 - 2060)
