The Story

The call of faraway lands. As mysterious and intriguing as a lone adventurer returning from a solitary sail, Cos d’Estournel is slow to reveal itself. Little by little, it evokes stories of distant places, market stalls brimming with unfamiliar fruits, spices and wares, village festivities warmed by the joy of revelers and the setting sun, and sumptuous visions of ladies and their voluptuous curves. A myriad of scents, colors and tastes appeal...

Wine Information

1982 - An exceptional year. Very abundant quantity.
A very deep colour, little developed. The bouquet does not reveal itself at once. The wine has much in store. On aeration, rich hints of very ripe fruit and spices develop. In the mouth, the wine is extremely dense and is perfectly harmonious but it does not yet express itself fully. The tannin is very well absorbed. May be drunk now but it can wait.
60% cabernet sauvignon 40% merlot – 70% ...

Vuosikerta 1982

1982 by James Suckling

The 1982 vintage in Bordeaux changed the world of wine and my life. It was the first vintage I tasted from barrel as a young wine writer working for the American magazine The Wine Spectator, and I was amazed at how magnificent the quality of a young red could be in barrel.

I remember the first barrel samples I tasted in the summer of 1983 at Château Prieuré-Lichine with the late wine author and winemaker Alexis Lic...

The 1982 Cos d’Estournel (sourced from Chateau) has always been one of my pet 1982s, and its nose was again a knockout. It had a little bit of every aroma that I have written so far in this article; just add tobacco. It was a rich, spiny wine with great structure. There was real breed here and despite a little burnt rubber in the nose, there was also gorgeous jasmine and spice. Long and stylish, the Cos had a nutty finish

Counted among the best vintages in Bordeaux’s history and one, that after 40 years, still keeps its fine ingredients intact. Cos was a peach of the wine with gorgeously intense Cabernet Sauvignon displaying leather, cedar and tobacco leaf. Plenty of creamy blackcurrants and grained tannin plus sweetness. Vibrant, refined and sophisticated. In full blossom. Can live forever!

A moderately perfumed nose, with some spice, cedar and a hint of fruit. The wine come alive on the palate with rich, unctuous black cherry rolling through a long, long finish. Classic Bordeaux elements of leather and cedar in the background, allowing the sweet fruit to dominate. Very ripe and balanced- absolutely beautiful! Flaws? I couldn’t think of any except I would have like another glass! Parker rated 95, I’ll up the ante to 98. What is the difference between a 98 and 100, you ask? Good question… completely subjective and ephemeral- a Zen thing, perhaps. Maybe it needed just a bit more muscle – but that is asking for a lot out of a 28 year old wine. However, my gold standard for 100 points in a red wine is a 1961 Pierre Ponelle Musingy- “an otherworldly experience”- which I was recently privileged to taste once again. That Burgundy is perfection on my palate. The Cos is very, very close, but not quite there.
