Although it had great mouthfeel, this wine was a bit closed and flat at first (even after decanting), but 30-60 minutes later it opened very nicely and showed beautifully with an excellent finish.

Enjoyed (as part of a fabulous meal) with three other ‘82s - the Mouton, Margaux and Leoville Las Cases. I could not pick a winner (nor could most of us) because they were all superb. The LB was arguably slightly less complex and structured but, to my surprise (and others’), it had arguably the ripest, most gorgeous fruit - and after 41 years , that was impressive.
