Description

Château Lafite 1982

u.6vts, 6ts, labels very slightly nicked, capsules are scuffed and nicked; 1 capsule nicked, revealing cork; 1 sunken cork, 1 slightly elevated cork; 7 bottles show signs of old seepage; damaged wooden bracket, owc

65% Cabernet Sauvignon in this vintage. On Christmas Eve 2013, an incredibly rich, spicy, leathery nose, multi-layered and meaty. The taste balances fresh acidity with real maturity and it is just so “thick” and velvety. Enormous tannic structure with irony backbone. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
