Château Figeac--Vintage 1982
Saint-Emilion, 1er grand cru classé
Levels: eleven top shoulder, one upper shoulder. Integrated US import labels. Five slightly nicked labels.
"This is actually a younger, more concentrated wine than the 1990. A dense plum/garnet color with a slight lightening at the edge is followed by a sensational Figeac nose of mint, fruitcake, Asian spices, gobs of sweet black and red fruits, and a smoky component in the background. Medium to full-bodied with lovely freshness, this 1982 appears to be fully mature, but it tasted the same a decade ago, and it should hold at this level for another 10-20 years.", RP, June 2009
