Château Lafleur--Vintage 1982
Pomerol
Two slightly bin-soiled labels. Levels: four into neck and two base of neck
Tasting Note: A spectacular nose of kirsch liqueur, minerals, flowers, and blackberries jumps from the glass of this thick, dark ruby-coloured Lafleur. Over-ripeness, a characteristic of many 1982s (I say that in a positive, not pejorative sense), is apparent in this jammy, unctuously-textured, massive wine. Somewhat of a paradox to taste, it offers notes of maturity, richness, and succulence contrasted with massive structure, muscle, and density. Thrilling to drink, despite its youthful, tannic grip. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2030. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 129 (June 2000)
