Bright rubypurple, with no lightening at the edge, this 1982 offers up aromas of pure, sweet, roasted nuts, along with mineral-laced black currants. Medium to full-bodied and structured, with high tannin and vibrant youthfulness, this wine has not evolved as much as I expected.
(8-1998) This bourgeois Medoc has received high praise in recent vintages. Crisp and good length with citrus-like acidity on its finish.
