1982 CLARETS
All taken from climate controlled storage, this small offering provides a chance to sample the very best of 1982 Bordeaux.
Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1982
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Lot 139 levels: bottom neck or better; five very lightly corroded capsules, one lightly nicked capsule, one cut capsule to reveal Château and vintage branded cork
Lot 140 levels: four bottom neck, one very top; one very lightly corroded capsule, five very lightly tissue stained labels
Lot 139 in original wooden case
"Eventually a triumph. On decanting and for two and a half hours later, the wine was big and smoky, with ripe fruit, a rather burnt nose, and firm, grippy tannins. With time a softer, riper plum and fig fruit character arose and the smoky, burnt aromas took a backseat, along with cedary lead pencil notes. On the palate in time the tannins softened as well, providing a lush, rich, velvety drink just in time for the steak." CC, Dinner at Christie's, December 2009
