Tasted at the Château Palmer vertical in London, the 1996 Château Palmer is a wine that never quite fulfilled its potential. There is satisfactory fruit intensity on the nose, blackberry and truffle, a touch of vanilla and violet developing with time in the glass. The palate still feels a little backward, but there is good grip and freshness. This is a harmonious 1996 Margaux and yet it feels conservative and straight-laced on the tobacco-infused finish. It is quite a “serious” Palmer, yet it does not quite back it up in terms of complexity or, for want of a better word, “soul.” Good…but you end up wanting more, especially having tasted the likes of 2000, 2005 and 2010 alongside. Drink 2016-2030.
