I usually link in my mind the 1983 and 1981 vintages. They certainly have quite a bit in common, in style and weight for example. Both are, or at least were, considered more characteristic of Bordeaux than the widely different and somehow "un-English" 1982 claret, by which I mean the sort of claret which we liked to drink.
