Chateau Palmer

Behind every great wine is a great terroir. Château Palmer is located: on long strip of land set between the Atlantic Ocean and the Gironde estuary. Behind the alluvial land of the palus sits the Brauzes plateau, the first gravelly terrace. This is well-drained land, rich with the deposits of the Garonne and Dordogne rivers, but washed clean of organic matter.

Difficult soil for agriculture, but exceptional for grape growing yet the vines still need help to fulfil their potential. So the men and women of Château Palmer carefully prune leaf and shoot to create a natural balance, channelling the plant's vitality towards producing the finest possible grapes.
