The 2021 Alter Ego de Palmer is a somewhat unusual blend, in that it's fully 60% Cabernet Sauvignon this year, the estate's Merlot having suffered in the April frosts. Exhibiting aromas of cherries, sweet berries and plums mingled wit hints of spices and pencil shavings, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and polished, with a charming, seamless profile founded on beautifully refined structuring tannins

Tasting Notes:
Appearance: The wine is deep ruby red with a slight brick hue, indicating its depth and concentration

Nose: The aroma is inviting, with prominent notes of intense floral (beeswax, cedar, graphite), crushed red and black berries, crisp and energetic fruit, chocolate, liquorice, and exotic Asiatic spices.

Palate: The flavor is well-balanced and complex, featuring crushed, bright, and energetic red and black berry fruit with a whole-berry feel. It has impressive natural sweet ripeness, crisp and crunchy fruit, chocolate, liquorice, and exotic Asiatic spices.

Overall: Alter Ego de Palmer Margaux 2021 is perfect for sipping on its own or pairing with hearty dishes like grilled meats, stews, and rich sauces. Its rich, fruity, and elegant profile makes it a standout choice for Bordeaux lovers.
