Tasted at the Chateau Palmer vertical in London, the 1937 Chateau Palmer has a lovely nose with diffuse dark plum and mulberry notes, and a tang of swimming baths - chlorine - followed by sage and almost garrigue-like scents. The palate is medium-bodied with a fine line of acidity, demonstrating a little more fruité than the 1928 Palmer, enhanced by its refreshing and precise finish. It does not own the complexity of the very top vintages of this Margaux estate, and I would not describe it as an "exciting" Margaux like the 1928 or 1961. Yet it surely must represent the peak of the estate during that difficult decade. It continues to drink well though if the 1937 is beginning to fray at the seams as it reaches the end of its innings. Tasted May 2015.
