Product Description
"The 1982 Lafleur is probably my favorite wine of the vintage, even if there are two or three wines that can rival it in quality, simply because it made such an impression on me when I first tasted it as a student. Today, from a perfect cellar where it has been stored since release, it remains extremely youthful; but it is also much more expressive than it was only six or seven years ago, offering up a singular bouquet of kirsch, sweet berries, licorice, orange zest, exotic spices and crushed mint. Full-bodied, satiny and sensual, it combines huge concentration with rare energy, exhibiting beautifully melted tannins and concluding with a long, pure finish." RP100 Dec. 2022.
"The 1982 Lafleur is to the Right Bank what '82 Latour is to the Left. It is one of the most consistent, most enthralling wines. The aromatics rivet you to the spot with intense black fruit, a touch of camphor and sea salt, delivered with breathtaking delineation. The palate is structured and less grippy than it showed 20 years ago; like the aforementioned Pauillac it is endowed with multiple layers of pixelated black fruit and a persistent finish that lingers long in the mouth. Stunning." NM100 for VM Feb. 2025.
