A beautiful sunny day.  Our first visit is to the prestigious third growth Chateau Palmer.  In the heart of the Margaux appellation this winery never fails to please clients.   Their pristine cellars and delicious wines are hard to beat.  We tasted both the Chateau Palmer and the Alter Ego 2007.  Both wines were tasting very well.

A quick drive up the D2 Wine Route for a few essential photo opportunities of Chateau Lafite Rothschilde and Cos d’Estournel then we were back to Cordeillan Bages in Pauillac for the highlight of the day.
