Château Prieuré-Lichine Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 1982

Opened four hours prior to service and decanted for 45 minutes before returning to the bottle. The 1982 pours a garnet color with a transparent core; medium viscosity with moderate stating of the tears. There remained some sediment despite being decanted. On the nose, the wine is vinous with an intriguing combination of ripe and desiccated (mostly) fruits: cassis, brambles, green bell pepper, leather, tobacco and a hint of baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannins and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is elegant, refined and satisfying. This is a classic expression of Margaux and certainly at peak. Sublime. Drink now through 2032+.

The last bottle at Mick’s Cellar tasting last Saturday and what a finale it was. Amazingly rich and full bodied for a 42 year old wine from the fabulous 1982 vintage in Bordeaux. One of the best wines (probably top 3) I’ve ever had was the 1982 Chateau Margaux and this nearby neighbour just reinforces that tasting some years ago. Plenty of red and black berry. Full bodied and delicious, still with a future. Supple fluid tannins with a loong finish. A treat to taste this. Thanks Mick.

82 vintage still holding its own. Fruit is long gone, but still very smooth and all the qualities of a Margaux. Personally, my tastes have changed in the past 50 years…I would much prefer a bold and intense Howell Mountain cab to the subtleties of a good Bordeaux.

17.5/20 (93/100) Вино с красивым и элегантным букетом, в котором преобладают тона специй и пряностей - лавровый лист, чёрный перец, гвоздика, корица, мускатный орех, дополненные сухими чёрными ягодами, тонами подлеска и сигарной коробки. Довольно высокая кислотность и приятные, бархатистые танины. Отлично!
