Château Gruaud-Larose--Vintage 1982
Saint-Julien, 2me cru classé
Lot 836 two very slightly scuffed and one very slightly damaged label. Levels base of neck or better. Lot 837 very slightly scuffed labels. Levels base of neck or better
Tasting note: A massive wine that is clearly of first-growth quality in this vintage, the 1982 Gruaud Larose remains a youngster. A broodingly dense, thick, unctuously textured, inky/plum/garnet/purple colour offers up scents of beef blood, steak tartare, cassis, herbs, tobacco, and underbrush. One of the most concentrated wines of the vintage (as well as one of the most concentrated Bordeaux's I have ever tasted), it is a huge, full-bodied, weighty, rich wine whose tannins are getting silkier and silkier. It appears set for another 30-40 years of life. This behemoth is a singularly profound example of Gruaud Larose that continues to justify its legendary status. Anticipated maturity: now-2050.
