1982 Wine and Port Vintage

Colheita Port
Exclusive to Vintage Wine and Port

1982 Palmer Colheita Port (Douro, Portugal)

A beautifully mellow single-harvest Tawny drawn from the 1982 vintage and matured for decades in old casks. In the glass it shows deep amber-tawny with a burnished rim; the nose is lifted and complex—dried fig and date, orange peel, walnut and almond brittle, toffee and crème brûlée, with a subtle varnished-oak/rancio note.

Silky and beautifully balanced on the palate: candied citrus and apricot layered with caramel, hazelnut and nougat; sweetness is refined rather than heavy, kept taut by lively acidity. The finish is long and elegant with salted caramel, pecan and orange-zest echoes. …

Fontanafredda

Barolo is known as the 'king of wines' and is made from the Nebbiolo grape. Heady aromas of rose, leather, vanilla, cherry, pepper, cranberry, strawberry. Fruits are perfectly knitted with the tannins and acidity. It's a powerful wine but remarkably subtle. Don't underestimate it and certainly serve it with food to show at it's best. Nebbiolo has naturally high tannins and acidity, so it will take on full-flavoured, rich foods no problem at all.

St Estephe, 2nd Growth Classification

Review by Robert Parker... "A spectacular performance for this wine, Cos d'Estournel's 1982 exhibits a dark ruby/purple color with light pink at the rim. Sweet aromas of jammy black fruits intermixed with roasted espresso and vanillin jump from the glass of this young, concentrated, full-bodied, succulent effort. An opulent texture, low acidity, and splendidly pure, concentrated, blackberry and cassis fruit suggest this 1982 can be drunk now, or cellared for another 15-20 years. An awesome wine!"

Yquem is indisputedly the best wine in Sauternes and may well be the finest sweet wine in the world.

92 Points, Neal Martin, The Wine Advocate, 26th Jun 2014

Served from an ex-chateau bottle. Sauternes only produced two exceptional wines in 1982: Suduiraut and Yquem. Although I have encountered the 1982 Chateau d’Yquem on three occasions, this is the finest bottle. It was an early vintage, physiological ripeness reached on September 16. Rainfall interrupted the harvest that really could not start in earnest until November 2, for just four days. It has a lucid amber color, and a fully mature bouquet with mandarin and marmalade aromas that are pure and well-delineated. …

Cherries on the palate too. Nice finish. Great food wine. Nebbiolo is a fickle grape famed as much for its pale appearance as for its tannic character and produces some of the most perfumed and richly flavored wines. Though generally only medium-bodied, the wines possess rose and anise scented aromatics and deep flavors of cherry, orange peel and subtle green herb tones.
