Château Branaire-Ducru--Vintage 1982
Saint-Julien, 4me cru classé
Levels: ten bottom neck, two very top shoulder, bin soiled labels
In original wooden case
"This is an elegant 1982, with blueberry, raspberry, mineral, and spicy oak aromas in the moderately intense, polite bouquet. The color is a healthy dark ruby with no lightening or amber. The wine exhibits firmness in the mouth as well as good flesh, a sweet, ripe entry, medium body, and impressive elegance and length. Not a blockbuster such as Gruaud-Larose, Leoville-Las-Cases, Leoville-Barton, and Leoville-Poyferre, this youthful, vibrant 1982 is a model of symmetry and finesse. Anticipated maturity: now-2015." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, #129 (June 2000)
