Tasting group spent a year drinking Bordeaux. Pessac, the final appellation and quite possibly one of the finest wines we drank.

Meaty, almost bloody, but some dark fruit peeking out from under the blanket of savory characters, bright and juicy with beautiful supple tannins

82 gets all the love, but this 83 showed some greatness, albeit more restrained than the bigger vintages.
