2000 年的 Château Palmer 曾封閉多年，如今終於展現光彩。色澤深濃，香氣略帶一絲沉鬱，但隨後綻放出濃郁的黑莓、草莓和薄荷香氣，並隱約帶有樟腦氣息。入口濃郁飽滿，黑櫻桃和黑醋栗的果香層層疊疊，酸度清晰貫穿其中。這款千禧年份的佳釀在收結時逐漸緊緻，回歸更為經典的風格，餘韻悠長而富有張力。

一款典型的 Palmer，兼具優雅與力量。我喜愛其中的黑莓、李子、朱古力與雪松風味。酒體非常悠長而美麗，絲絨般的單寧質感令人印象深刻。
Château Palmer 1999 is regarded as the 2nd Apostle in the manga, Drops of God
"All Great Terroir Overlook the River." The vineyards in the Plateau des Brauzes, where the terraced deposit of gravelly soil swept along by the Garonne River throughout two ice ages. For four centuries, the teams at Château Palmer have devoted their talent, intelligence, and know-how to express the potential of its terroir.
The year 2000 in Bordeaux is widely regarded as a “millennial classic.” Perfect weather in August and September ensured outstanding ripeness. Château Palmer 2000 is a blend of 53% Merlot and 47% Cabernet Sauvignon. Generous and opulent in style, with silky tannins, it perfectly captures the maturity and charm of this landmark vintage.

The 2000 Château Palmer was closed for a number of years, but it appears to be finally opening. Deep in colour, there remains a slight broodiness on the nose, although it loses its inhibitions and develops potent blackberry, strawberry and mint aromas, perhaps just a smudge of camphor. It is unashamedly rich on the entry: intense and vibrant with layers of black cherry and cassis fruit pierced by a fine line of acidity. This millennial tightens everything up towards the, finish whereupon it reverts to something much more classic in style, long and tensile.

A typical Palmer showing finesse alongside strength. I love the blackberry, plum, chocolate and cedar character. It’s very long and beautiful. The velvety, textured tannins are impressive.
