- geowine - 02-17-2002
Many years ago I bought some wines from a club that I have since left. From what I have read, 1982 was a good year for bordeaux wines. I would like to know if I should be drinking these wines now ?
1982 Cotes de Buzet Cuvee Napolean
1982 Listrac Chateau Fourcas Hosten
1982 St. Emillion Chateau Haut Sarpe
1982 Pomerol Chateau La Croix
and
1985 Graves Chateau L'Etoile
What value, if any, would these wine have?

Hi Geowine and welcome to the board. All of the wines you've listed are ready and maybe on the downside. Time to start popping the corks and having some fun. The 82 vintage was a great vintage but the wines with a lot of value are the 1st and 2nd growths plus the top wines from St. Emilion and Pomerol. Mite have some nice drinkin' there. WW
