2000 Alter Ego de Palmer
Buying options
Tasting Notes
This is super for a second wine. Fantastic aromas of chocolate, berry and coffee. Yet very classy and subtle. Full-bodied, with a reserved rich and caressing texture. Loads of ripe and wonderful fruit in this. Second wine of Château Palmer. Best after 2006. James Suckling, Wine Spectator 2003

Palmer's second wine, the 2000 Alter Ego exhibits plenty of plump, fat, fleshy fruit, medium to full body, and an accessible style. Drink it over the next 7-8 years. Apr 2003, www.robertparker.com
