Description

One of the greatest Grand-Puy-Lacostes ever produced, the 1982 still possesses a youthful, dense opaque purple color with slight lightening at the edge. The nose remains somewhat monolithic, but an intense black currant/creme de cassis-scented bouquet is backed up by roasted earth, smoke, and mineral notes.

Full-bodied, muscular, and powerful, this opulently-textured, moderately tannic, youthful, huge Grand-Puy-Lacoste will benefit from another 2-5 years of cellaring. However, the wine's sweetness and low acidity provide plenty of joy at present. It will age well for at least another 25 years. 93pts

"A very aristocratic Pauillac but lacking a little charm and finesse" are my words when first tasted at Chez Bruce in July 2001. Then at the GPL vertical in July 2005. A deep colour, with tawny rim. A lovely Pauillac nose of cigar box, leather and blackberry leaf. Superb balanced on the palate: understated with dense tarry black fruits. This seems to have developed at a glacial pace over the intervening years. Cedary finish. This still has some way to go. Drink from 2012. 94-96pts
