Note di degustazione
The 1983 Montrachet Grand Cru had faded a little by the time I tasted it, offering up inviting aromas of apple, smoke and freshly baked bread compromised by a touch of oxidation. Medium to full-bodied, charming and seamless, with a pretty core of fruit, I suspect there are fresher bottles out there, but now is the time to start pulling corks.

The 1983 Montrachet Grand Cru from Bouchard Père has a surprisingly rich nose, but frankly, it comes across just a bit flabby juxtaposed against the superior 1988. The palate is balanced but simple. It never kicks on and is handicapped by a finish that has run out of ideas. Innocuous.
The 1983 Montrachet Grand Cru sports signature traits of botrytis on the nose that gives away the vintage. A little petrolly. The palate is viscous on the entry with some volatility and notes of dried mango towards the honeyed but simple finish. Interesting, but not the world's greatest Montrachet. Tasted at the "Three" dinner at Bouchard Père in Beaune.
