83 Palmer

1983 Château Palmer;
Ruby with garnet rim. Very top shoulder, needed a lot of air to open, first atractive, if lean Margaux, floral, perfumed, layered, later on, ever more intense. After a few hours, superb elegance, and layers upon layers. Nose beyond description. Leaner palate, fresh acidity, tannins ripe and feels almost gone, layered but can't quite keep up with the nose. My very best 83 Palmer, but nowhere close to my best 83 Ch. Margaux. 94
