1983 Sauternes And Barsac

Château L'Evangile

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 1983

Nice, but over the hill. Rust and tomato to go with plum sweetness. — 10 years ago

Château Suduiraut

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 1983

Gloriously acidic visitor to our coravin session last evening. Thought it might be a bit flabby (going by the reviews) but everything was in perfect balance. Incredibly Fragrant; a virulent golden yellow; full of nectarines and hints of other tropical fruits. It developed into one of the great timeless wines that facilitate a tendrilled connection between everyone with a glass in their hand. — 10 years ago

Beaumont Chinon Cabernet Franc 1983

Magnum and all I can say is that between this and the Raffault bottles I've tried is that Chinon can age and develop as well as anything out there. Absolutely brilliant expression of Cabernet Franc. — 9 years ago

This is what aged port should taste like. Velvety black fruit. Vanilla. Full mouthfeel and long finish. Not over the hill one bit. A real treat. — 11 years ago

Released in 2013. This is still so young and forward, I can barely understand. Sure, I suppose there was development here, but I keep chasing these wines backwards in time, and they never seem to reach that place that my vinous instincts suggest they're headed. I mean, this was really tasty - maybe my expectations are the problem... — 9 years ago
