Château Margaux--Vintage 1982
1 bottle per lot
Château Margaux--Vintage 1982 Margaux, 1er cru classé Lot 233 levels: ten bottom neck or better, two top shoulder; four signs of old seepage, two lightly corroded capsules Lot 234 level: top shoulder "The 1982 Margaux is a great contrast to the Latour of the same vintage. The '82 Margaux still retains a freshness and a youthful vibrancy at 27 years of age, and shows lively red currant fruit character, but of a high-toned nature - a really singing sort of fruit, overlaid with a subtle smokiness. On the palate the wine is very elegant, sophisticated, and satiny or silky as opposed to the velvety ripeness and density of the Latour. The finish here was also long and the wine was very expressive." CC, June 2009 1 bottle per lot
