Really just stunning. So nimble, so tight, so compact, so elegant. Brilliant! Didn’t taste the 89 sadly.

Tasted alongside the 82. This 1983 was deeper and richer than the 82. Both wines were chilled and warmed in the glass as we held them. Notes of old leather and sweet tobacco and cherry. Dark fruit on the palate with great acidity. More so than 82. Tasting the 83 make me want to try the 1990 again so bad.

Feel badly rating this one because I think the bottle was off. Slightly rubbery, maderized.

Good bottle. A little funky in the beginning, but opened up just fine

1983 La Chapelle Big red fruit. Ripe. Almost a modern style wine. No terroir.
