Château Palmer
The 3ème Cru located in the AC Margaux is one of the most famous estates in all of Bordeaux, known for its excellent wines, which often receive ratings close to those of Premier and Deuxième Crus. Palmer is unmistakable due to the small towers visible from a distance at each corner of the château.
The 55 hectares are planted across 25 different soils with good drainage. Several years ago, the estate decided to cultivate a blend of half Cabernet Sauvignon and half Merlot for its prized and sought-after wines.
The name Peter Sichel is also inseparable from Palmer: the German-American wine merchant (and former US secret agent) was once a co-owner of the magnificent estate. He became famous and wealthy by popularizing Blue Nun(Liebfraumilch) in the United States.
