Initially pretty closed, cedar and some woody (oak) notes, fruit is mature, tannic structure has receded, medium-long finish, very good if a tad rustic, but lacks the depth of better classified growths. — 5 years ago

You smell this and you know it's OLD. Such a beautiful nose that you can spend all day smelling. A very nice, lasting finish. Tar, leather, and plum. — 8 years ago

Youthful 82 love the vinegar and I love pomerol. Makes a great combination for me to appreciate this wine. Lots of acid and fruit. Amazing color for a 34 year old — 10 years ago

Un vin Hors norme! Mon meilleur HB et mon Meilleur 1982. Tout y etait. Fruit, matiere, finesse, structure, longueur et nez renversant. Il vient se classer avec les Clinet 90 et cheval Blanc 90 comme vin mytique a mes yeux! — 5 years ago

Commencing delecte-bomb transmission....from 6 liter. Smokey BBQ, almost tangy fruit. Splendid. — 10 years ago

9.5

Tasted blind. Reddish tawny, almost opaque. Big shoulders in the nose. Complex. Notes of briary brush, raspberry, hickory, pepper and tobacco leaf. Mellow in the mouth, especially when compared to the big nose. Sweeter fruit finish. Took some deductive time with my guess... 82 Margaux which freaked out my friend who brought the bottle. This is in a good place, not sure if it will improve with more age. But it’s in no danger of declining anytime soon. — 5 years ago

Animal flavor. Leather. Still elegant and acidic. But when opening, cork stripped to inside of bottle. That means. 1982 @, Kai - JH, 190406-190601 — 6 years ago

For a Haut Medoc grand cru I was delighted to drink this 35 year old gem. Smokey cedar nose and rich tobacco cassis flavors with delicate tannins this wine has enormous fruit and lasting power. — 8 years ago
