Château Lafleur--Vintage 1983
Pomerol. Château-bottled
Bin-soiled and stained labels. Levels into neck
Not in original wooden case
Tasting note: deep ruby colored, with noteworthy amber at the edge, this is the only Lafleur from a very fine year that has reached full maturity, at least from the last 2 decades. I have had this wine from both regular bottle and magnum, and it is an example of Lafleur at its kinkiest and most exotic. The soaring nose of jammy kirsch, plum, licorice, and Asian spices is superb. Soft, round, plump, medium- to full-bodied flavors coat the palate with considerable glycerin and sweet tannin. This open-knit, surprisingly evolved, luscious Lafleur should continue to drink well for 10-15 years. Anticipated maturity: Now-2010. Last tasted, 11/97. Robert Parker. Bordeaux A Comprehensive Guide. Third Edition
