Château Gruaud-Larose--Vintage 1982
1 impériale per lot
Château Gruaud-Larose--Vintage 1982 Saint-Julien, 2me cru classé Level: base of neck or better; lightly bin soiled label, lightly corroded capsule, signs of old seepage, slightly depressed cork "An extraordinarily powerful, backward wine with unlimited up-side potential, the opaque plum/purple/black-colored 1982 Gruaud-Larose exhibits an explosive nose of new saddle leather, plums, prunes, black cherry jam, chocolate, steak tartare, and roasted espresso. Unbelievably powerful, thick, and intense, with full body, mouth-searing tannin levels, a grilled steak-like flavor, and a huge, intense finish, this is a monster, blockbuster 1982 that still needs 5-7 years of cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2030. It should prove to be one of the most profound Gruaud-Laroses made in the twentieth century. In quality, it is a first-growth."
