This is a racy, well-integrated wine; always an outstanding bottle. Dark ruby-colored with a garnet hue. Bubbling over with fresh berry, cherry and currant aromas. Full-bodied, with well-integrated tannins and a long silky finish. Slightly closed; drink now through 2010.–1982 Bordeaux horizontal. –JS WS
