Château La Mission-Haut-Brion--Vintage 1982
Pessac (Graves), cru classé
Good labels. Levels base of neck or better
In original wooden case
Tasting Note: An extraordinary effort that gets better with each tasting, this dark, murky, garnet/purple-coloured 1982 exhibits a fabulously complex nose of hot bricks, asphalt, black fruits, tar, roast beef, and truffles, colossal concentration, super-ripeness, an unctuous texture, and low acidity. While still exceptionally youthful, this wine is powerful, dense, large-scaled, and intense. It is evolving at a snail's pace, but should continue to improve for another 10-15 years, and last for another three decades. A candidate for perfection! Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 129 (June 2000)
