Hi, I'm a lurker and i'd like to taste Washington (thought they only made wars. Wine too?), burgundy (too expensive more often than not) and Argentina.

i read some review from cellartracker, it is good to drink now, and can keep for a few years too. i love this kind of wines which is in its drinking window. tt's also the reason why i buy 2 bottles, drink 1 keep 1...

 

[ikileo]

Good buy MC! Ch Palmer, even its second wines, r usually priced (overly IMO) high. It is viewed as a 'super second' (1 notch just below the first growths) even thou it's official 'rank' is a 3rd growth. V fragrant wine - pleasure is all on the nose. Enjoy!

hey andice2 what's the next bottle you are looking at consuming?
