Vision of the Vintage ‘2023, the first judgment ‘
“Vintages follow one another and are definitely not alike. Under an unreadable sky, a subtle and intimate interpretation of the place turned 2023 into a great Palmer vintage.” - Château Palmer

Vintage 2023
Winter is mild and wet. The April frosts had no impact on the vineyard. The Merlots bud during the last week of March. Spring is mild and humid despite starting with a frost episode that had no effect on the vines. The humidity pushed the teams to stay alert to preserve the health of the vines. Flowering is uniform and occurs from May 31 to June 5 under warm and dry conditions, raising great hopes for the 2023 vintage. June is mixed, cloudy, and warm. August is highly contrasting with a slightly gloomy start followed by two heatwaves that enabled ideal berry ripening.

Harvest
Harvesting began on September 11 with the Merlots. It was paused for a week due to thunderstorms. The Cabernets were then harvested later in the season under ideal conditions.

Tasting Vintage 2023
Under an unpredictable sky, this 2023 vintage, full of beautiful aromatic freshness, promises wines with perfect harmonic control, nurturing their uniquely soft texture.” - Château Palmer

Details chateau PALMER

History and anecdotes

The English general, Charles Palmer acquired the estate in 1814 and gave it his name in the 1830s. The Pereire brothers, influential bankers, bought Château Palmer in 1853, just before being classified as Troisième Cru in 1855. They built the emblematic château we all know today.

In 1938, the estate was bought by four great families, wine merchants from Bordeaux, the Ginestet, the Mihailhen, the Mähler-Besse and the Sichel. The last two families are nowadays the estate’s owners, but it has been run by Thomas Duroux, an agricultural engineer and oenologist, since 2004.
