Hi Kono, and welcome to the Wine Board. The 1983 vintage was a very good one following the sensational one in '82. Graves in general and Hout Brion in particular have the longest lives among most Bordeaux. If yours has been maintained in proper conditions it could be worth between $150 and $300 per bottle at auction. If you are wine drinker, you have some very good wine that should be fully mature right now. Enjoy.
