Appellation:
AOC Margaux, Bordeaux

Country of Origin:
Bordeaux, France

Type:
Red/Rouge (Still)

(2000)
Palmer's second wine, the 2000 Alter Ego exhibits plenty of plump, fat, fleshy fruit, medium to full body, and an accessible style.

(2016)
Blended of 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 12% Petit Verdot, the deep garnet-purple colored 2016 Alter Ego de Palmer opens with beautifully expressive notes of black cherries, fresh blackberries and redcurrants plus suggestions of menthol, dark chocolate, cloves and underbrush. Medium to full-bodied with a rich mid-palate and stacks of exuberant black and red fruits, it has a velvety texture and fantastically long finish.
