A fantastic nose. Deep spicy dark fruit, a hint of band aid, funky intense fruit. Great stuff- savory with some notes of iron and meat stock and a subtle punch acidity. Great

1982: The backbone one expects is there. Plenty of fruit, less presence of tannin than anticipated. Solid, straight forward.

This bottle is past its prime, yet still providing complex and fascinating tastes across the pallet as only a 1982 Paulliac can.
