1982 Chateau Talbot;
A level fill, cork half soaked. Deep ruby, intence and young fruit, cassis, blackcurrants, tobacco, cigars, lots of cedar, medicinal, such complex and elegant beauty. Perfect harmony and balance, fresh and livelly acidity, ripe tannins, great fruit, fantastic long finish. I got this blind, and the only thing to hint at some age was the medicinal touch, otherwise it was so youthfull. I guessed at a 2000 First Growth or super second. Just marvelous. 96
