1982 Chateau Pichon Lalande

[Glass_A_Day]

Passive cellaring by my uncle made this beauty a bit over the hill when it should have been peaking but still a beautiful wine. Beautiful fruit with 0 tannins left. My first experience with an older bordeaux. Maybe next time I can talk him into being over the 82 Mouton...

Nice.......Gotta find an uncle like that....

The price was still on it too. 28.99.

Yeah, the 86 Pichon Lalandes I had were priced at $32. Times have changed.

Was one of my 5 favorites from this fabulous vintage. On release it was knocked by Big Bob, then re-evaluated in 86 and raised to outstanding status. WW

Bobo upped it to 100 points in 2000.
