Vision of the Vintage ‘2024, the primary element ‘
Thomas Duroux of Château Palmer shares a few words about the 2024 vintage: “The sky doesn’t always give us the schedule. Accustomed to hostile springs, we have collectively developed good reflexes. The meticulous blending and winemaking experience elevate this vintage to its point of quintessence.”

Viticulture
The weather in the 2024 vintage was very challenging. Rainfall was 100% higher than the ten-year average, increasing the risk of disease in the vineyard. Mildew appeared as early as April 22, and nature awakened very quickly. Under these conditions, the oldest merlot plots experienced coulure. The dry summer allowed the teams some respite. September brought heavy rain, hastening the harvest.

2024 Vintage Tasting
“Château Palmer reveals a generous and velvety texture that embraces the palate, easily finding its point of balance and harmony.” – Thomas Duroux

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.
