Tasted at the Chateau Palmer vertical in London, whilst I admire the vintage, the 1962 Chateau Palmer has never put forward a convincing case that it is one of the greats, as if the 1961 stole all the glory. It is a slightly deeper color than the 1960. There nose is agreeable with a touch of licorice, violet petals and an old mahogany bureau. The palate is medium-bodied and nicely focused, light tannin with acceptable depth. But there is nothing extraordinary about this Palmer, nothing that will indelibly imprint it upon your memory. Do not overlook it if you see it at an attractive price, but unlike the 1961 or 1966, it is not a bottle I would pay over the odds for. Tasted May 2015.
