Tasting notes:

Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate #183 (June 2009): 90/100

Palmer, which seemed very loosely structured, and lacking concentration as well as tannin when it was first tasted, has firmed up, put on some weight, and reveals a slightly rustic edge. It possesses a deep garnet color to the rim along with plenty of sweet black fruit, charcoal, herb, and licorice characteristics.

James Suckling, Wine Spectator (November 1998): 90/100

A well-crafted red with beautiful structure. Dark ruby-garnet in color, with a lot of violet and earth aromas. Full-bodied, with loads of silky tannins and a long, sweet fruit finish. Has always been outstanding.

Stephen Tanzer, Vinous (July 2002): 93/100

Full, deep red. Spicy aromas of cassis and rose petal, with a whiff of meat. Then wonderfully penetrating and classy, with bright acidity giving the wine superb clarity and thrust. This has terrific structure. Finishes very long and fine, with excellent grip. By far the finest bottle I've tasted to date of this wine, and one of the real surprises of the tasting.

René Gabriel, Bordeaux Total (2015): 18/20

Aufhellendes, gereiftes Weinrot, ziegelroter Rand. Schlanker Bouquetansatz, grünliche Cabernetwürze, Tabak, Lorbeerblatt. Durch seinen grünlichen Schimmer wirkt er noch sehr jung in der Nase. Auch im Gaumen eher schlank, elegant, lang und mit viel süffiger Nonchalance bis hin zum Finale.
