1983 Elegant and lean in structure. Has a dark ruby hue that s showing some brick-red on the edge. Floral aroma with leather, cedar, mushrooms. Still showing a surprising amount of extraction, it s rich and ripe yet elegant. Dark ruby with aromas of barnyard, bell pepper, black currant and cedar.
Flavors are still rather closed, showing dried wood, blackberry and semi-firm tannins.
Drink or hold. One is at its best. The color is deep purple and the wine youthful and still tightly structured. Aromas of bell pepper, chocolate, smoke and blackberry. Drink or hold.
