Description

An excellent bottle of Cheval Blanc from the legendary 1982 vintage.

Level Very Top Shoulder / Base of Neck
Label Good, Complete and not stained/bruised etc
Capsule: Complete with just a small/bruising/ruffle to the lower skirt, probably from separators in its original box.

A couple of comments amongst the many available on the web. Also via WineSearcher are prices listed (pre VAT) by the trade - £550 upwards.

Revealing considerable amber in its dark plum/garnet colour, this intensely fragrant 1982 is somewhat of a paradox in that the front end suggests full maturity, but the mid-palate, finish, and overall texture denote a closed wine. A gorgeously sweet entry displays flavours of caramel, roasted coffee, jammy red and black fruits, coconut, and smoke. It is fat and full-bodied, with considerable tannin, structure, and muscle in the finish. Flamboyantly rich and precocious early in life, it is going through an awkward stage where the tannin is present, but it is also sexy, juicy, and formidably-structured. When the 1982 Cheval Blanc's component parts become totally in sync, it will be capable of meriting a three-digit rating. Anticipated maturity: now(?) - 2015.
Score: 99 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate (129), June 2000
Score: 100 Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book (3), November 1998

More of a cloud than a spear in its impact on the palate (cf the 'spear' of 1990). Very intense and looks quite a bit older than the 1990 but clearly a very good vintage. Extremely rich on the nose. The acidity was initially quite obvious on the palate but the fruit blossomed in the glass so that it became less marked. A drier finish than the 1990. Less opulent. Drink 1996-2012.Date tasted 31st Oct 08.
