Bottles of the 1982 in Europe tasted better than this bottle tasted in the United States but regardless this wine turns heads on either side of the Atlantic. Medium plus dark garnet turning clear at the rim. Slightly dusty nose of cherry, spice, leather, and black truffle (European 1982s showed more fruit in the nose). Smooth in the mouth but the wine still has considerable tannic structure. Luckily it has the fruit to withstand further aging.
