1982 versus 1990 Bordeaux

When you receive an invitation to a comparative tasting of all Premier Crus from the two great vintages of 1982 and 1990, you drop everything and clear your diary. 1982 and 1990 represent the beginning and end of perhaps the greatest era in the history of Bordeaux. During these nine years there were only two vintages that could be seen as disappointments: 1984 and 1987. It could rightly be stated that the period fr...

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...

Colour: Medium intense, brick red
Nose: Complex, seductive, perfumy, floral, toasty, mocha
Palate: Rich, silky, smooth tannins, cassis, lovely toastiness
Finish: Lingering, harmonious and seductive
In a word: Extremely elegant and very flirty wine
Buy or not? Yes, one of the best drinking 1982s in Bordeaux
Tasted: 17 times (Last time 2011)
Decant time: 2 h
Glass time: 2 h
When to drink: 2025
Food pairing: Beijing Duck
Fake factor: Moderate
Inside information: Eversince Madame May-Eliane de Lencquesaing became in charge of the estate in 1978, the wines have shown even more finesse and delicate character than before - coincidence or woman touch?
Or try this: Château Latour 1982
Final verdict: The best Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande ever made, so far.

We ended where it arguably all began with a pair of 1982 Bordeaux, specifically a 1982 Pichon Lalande. It was a great bottle, but tighter than I ever remembered it being. There were aromas of peanut brittle, caramel, nutter butter, green bean and a pinch of thigh cream. This was long, elegant and solid, but I definitely felt like I should have opened it up a few hours earlier. This was still my nutty buddy (95).

Polished silk is what this stunner feels like on your palate. There is depth, vibrancy, weight and length, finishing with a boatload of cassis, black cherry, tobacco, cigar box, cedar and olives that keep on going. Fully mature, it's hard to believe that according to oldtimers, this wine has been that good since it was released!

A bit lighter in color and a brown edge. Classic perfumed nose of earth, leather lifted with dried flowers and exotics, although a little faint by the time we got to it (3 hours after decanting), great balance between the generous black cherry-cassis fruit and structural, earthy elements. Good length. Very pleasing, but could have used a bit more concentration. Still, a great wine. Parker moved his scores up on this wine over time, ending at a 94. I’d go just a tad lower, perhaps a 93.

1982 was avery important vintage for Bordeaux. It started an era with increasingly well made wines and increasingly high prices. It was a very large vintage as very little crop reduction was used but the grapes all managed to ripen due to perfect conditions during the harvest. A vintage full of successes but few wines have been so loved as that of Château Pichon Lalande. This was a joy to drink earlier than most other wines from Médoc but it has kept its form and given us wine lovers decades of joy. I have had the pleasure to drink this soft and lovely wine on several conditions but none more memorable than at a lunch at Restaurant Taillevent in honour of May-Elaine Lencquesaings 80th birthday. It has certainly reached its peak now and nothing will be gained by waiting. Well kept bottles will certainly live for a number of years still. It will need some decanting time and there is no hurry to finish your glass.

Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande came third in the 1982 tasting. Resembling the Mouton in structure, but with sweeter fruit on the palate, a little bit less concentration and slightly less precision in the tannins. But don’t get me wrong: a great wine without any doubt.
