1982 Vintage Bordeaux

Château Beychevelle 1982, St‑Julien (L) “An expressive nose - heady and evocative still - a marker of the ripe, plush and powerful 82s when they were born. Floral and fragrant with red and black fruit, some baked cherries and soft caramel notes alongside leather and cigar box. Determined and sinewy on the palate, tannins are sharp, full and focussed. A lovely frame and sense of style, this has bite and tang with licks of wet stone, graphite, slate and pencil lead all combining alongside liquorice. This still has lots of life yet. Stylish and confident, vibrant and energetic still with excellent weight. Extremely enjoyable, in its prime but by no means tired - lots of life yet.” Tasted May 27, 2023 95 pts, Decanter 343515 1 bottle limit $800
