Alter Ego de Palmer 2020 Margaux

"Chocolate shavings and smoked coffee bean on the nose, it's a vintage where you can't get away from the tannins, but here they have sinew and juice, like the best translation of the tannins in the year. This has real purity of fruit (very low SO2 addition at Palmer), together with the gourmet touch that you want in Alter Ego." 93 points, Decanter

"50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 46% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot. Cask sample. Very much in the Alter Ego mould -- lively, fruit-driven with that vineyard-fresh feel but with a little more structure than previous years. Pure and appetising but will age." 17.5/20 points, Jancis Robinson
