It was ranked as a third growth in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, although for many decades it has been consistently rated as one of the best wines in the region. Unusually for the Médoc, Château Palmer usually has as much Merlot as Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend (along with a small amount of Petit Verdot), which helps give the wine a fleshy and generous structure. It can be drunk young, but will also reward long cellaring.The Palmer vineyards cover 55 hectares (136 acres) in the former Cantenac commune (now part of Margaux-Cantenac), mostly on a plateau of thin gravel on the edge of the estuary. Vines are densely planted, as is the habit in this region, to ensure competition between vines, reduce vigor and promote deeper root systems.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2022-12-24T11:39:25-05:00","created_at":"2022-12-22T10:57:14-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","MK2212","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Chateau Palmer","Region_Bordeaux","Source_Bestofwines1222","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Bordeaux Blend","varietal_cabernet sauvignon","Varietal_Merlot"],"price":124999,"price_min":124999,"price_max":124999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42641694785674,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"1990 | Chateau Palmer","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":124999,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/42_6eced6a3-5cb1-4e9e-8928-df03968fbf87.png?v=1671724979"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/42_6eced6a3-5cb1-4e9e-8928-df03968fbf87.png?v=1671724979","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"1990 | Chateau Palmer at CaskCartel.com","id":23824507273354,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.557,"height":1020,"width":568,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/42_6eced6a3-5cb1-4e9e-8928-df03968fbf87.png?v=1671724979"},"aspect_ratio":0.557,"height":1020,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/42_6eced6a3-5cb1-4e9e-8928-df03968fbf87.png?v=1671724979","width":568}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 1990 | Chateau Palmer\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA definition of finesse.
