1982 Chateau Duhart-Milon, Pauillac, Bottle (750ml) [Slight Water Stained Label]

1982 Duhart Milon - Wine Advocate # 183 - Jun 2009: This blockbuster was a sleeper of the vintage long before the Rothschilds invested so heavily in modernizing this estate as well as began making a stricter selection. Close to full maturity, the 1982 Duhart Milon exhibits classic notes of creme de cassis, cedar, and flowers, medium to full body, a high level of glycerin, and a lusciousness and fleshiness that are very much in keeping with the vintage. There is a slight amount of pink at the rim, but this beauty should keep for another ten years.
