Details
1983 Vintage Report: The weather conditions were quite good, for though there was a poor start it improved in time for the flowering and the summer was hot and dry. The harvest, which started towards the end of September, took place in ideal conditions resulting in a large crop of good quality wines. M.B.
Château Latour--Vintage 1983
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Tasting note: Latour 1983: Deep velvety; fragrant, cedary bouquet opening up richly. Sweeter than expected, good fruit and flavour (at a Bordeaux Club dinner at Caius, Cambridge 1998). **** M.B.
