Vintage 1982 | I love mature wines and this is an excellent example that shows the greatness of 1982. Colour: Italian rooftiles. Cedar, spices, tobacco. Warm taste. Good balance. A treat!

I think this is the last of my 12 bottles of this wine and it's drinking very nicely. What a great investment at 12 dollars a bottle back in ~2003.

Best ever from here. Classic Bdx aromas including pencil shavings, cedar and herbaceous notes adding interest to its tell tale cassis and dark cherry flavors. Pronounced tannins add lift on the finish. Recommended for mid-term cellaring.
