What a second wine. This is so delicious with a dense palate and beautiful yet friendly structure. Velvety tannins coat your mouth but it is the savory fruit that brings you back for more. Love the chocolate and coffee undertones. Better in 2016 but beautiful now.

Sattes Purpur-Granat, dicht in der Mitte, lila Schimmer aussen. Dichtes, süsses Brombeerbouquet, dunkles Caramel, dezent tintig dahinter. Im Gaumen seidig mit mittlerem Körper bei sehr viel schon fast verschwenderischen Aromen, noch eine feinherbe Schokobitterkeit im Innern. Kann noch zulegen und ist auf sehr gutem Weg.

A second wine that has improved dramatically is the Alter Ego de Palmer. The 2009, a blend of equal parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, exhibits aromas of blackberries, cassis, chocolate, roasted espresso and a smoky/foresty note. This hedonistic, juicy, succulent Margaux is meant to be consumed in its first 10-15 years of life.

Love the gorgeous red fruits in this wine. It seems a little Porty, with prune and blackberry character, but so soft, round and rich. Could use a little more in the center palate, but opulent and generous. A little hot. 50 percent Merlot and 50 percent Cabernet Sauvignon. Score range: 88-91 ?JS
