Saturday, August 12, 2017 - Château Palmer vertical tasting dinner (3030 Ocean, Fort Lauderdale, Florida): Initially, the 1983 Palmer was somewhat closed down. After airing out in the glass, it offered up a deep and complex nose of black currant, blackberry, fresh violets, licorice, leather, and cigar tobacco. On the palate, the wine was full-bodied, generous, and with great structure. The tannins weren’t overpowering, but still need a bit of softening. The finish was long and fresh, with really nice acidity. This wine clearly has not yet reached its peak.
