WA 92 (6/2000): An impressive performance by this back-strapping, old style, tannic, youthful blockbuster, the 1982 Le Gay reveals purple nuances in its dark ruby color, followed by notes of minerals, smoke, jammy blackberry and cherry fruit, medium to full body, and mouth-coating levels of tannin. Anticipated maturity: 2002-2020.
VM 90 (8/2002): Saturated full red. Aromas of candied red berries, mushroom, dark chocolate, minerals and menthol. Dense and rich but chunky; boasts very good vinosity and considerable power. Slightly rustic leather and earth notes. Finishes with strong, chalky tannins and excellent persistence. Long on personality. Drink now through 2010. |

VM 85 (7/2002): Bright red-ruby. Roasted aromas of red berries, spice cake and marzipan. Sweet on entry, then a bit featureless and flat in the middle palate. Ultimately rather simple, but not unpleasant. Stephen Tanzer.
MB [****] (12/1998): I occasionally 'damn with faint praise' the more specious vintages of Malescot. Not the '82. Fruity from the start, drinking well in 1990 and, most recently, deliciously fragrant; very sweet, soft, chewy fruit, well balanced, dry finish.
WS 89 (11/1998): Rich and thick, with lots of flavor. Dark ruby-garnet in color, with an amber edge. Very ripe berry and chocolate aromas. Full-bodied and very chewy, with a lot of tannin and a long, tobacco, berry aftertaste.--1982 Bordeaux horizontal. Drink now.
WA 85 (12/1995): Rarely tasted since bottling, this wine has exhibited a soft, fruity personality, with pleasant but undistinguished levels of fruit concentration. Drink this round, supple, fully mature wine over the next 4-5 years. Tasted 2 times since bottling with consistent notes. |
