Tasting notes
The 1981 is overtly oaky, without any great depth or intensity. With average concentration of fruit, and somewhat short in the finish, this Pichon-Longueville is a charming, agreeable, precociously styled wine that is ideal for consumption over the next 5-6 years. Anticipated maturity: Now. Last tasted, 2/87.
