Chateau Grand Mayne 1983

Tasting Notes
Rose petal and berry aromas follow through to a full body, with chewy tannins and a tobacco and berry aftertaste.

93 Points - Wine Enthusiast
Barrel sample. This spicy wine, aged in new wood, is rich and full with blackberry flavors. It's opulent in texture with layers of new oak that reverberate through the wine.

92 Points - James Suckling
This is very intense for the vintage with blueberry, light coffee and wet earth character. Full body, silky and polished tannins and a long, long finish. Excellent.

91 Points - Wine Spectator
Very polished, with a flattering feel up front and lots of ripe plum, blackberry paste and blueberry reduction notes at the core. Shows some serious grip on the back end, with ganache and graphite accents joining a brambly hint on the finish. This should stretch out in the cellar as both sides come together.
