Château Gazin--Vintage 1982
Pomerol
Lot 787 levels: three into neck and one top shoulder; lightly bin soiled labels. Lot 788 bin soiled labels
"The problem with so many 1985 Barsac/Sauternes is that they come across as monolithic and one-dimensional, particularly when compared with years where there is a great deal more botrytis, such as 1986 and 1988. Nevertheless, for those readers who like to drink these wines as an aperitif, 1985 is the type of vintage where the wines can be drunk early in the meal. The 1985 is fresh, with plenty of fruit, but lacking the complexity one normally associates with this chateau. Anticipated maturity: Now-2000. Last tasted, 3/90." Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition (1998)
