I may have consumed my half case of 2005 Greysac too early, but I probably waited a bit long to finish my half case of 1982 Poujaeaux, purchased more than 40 years ago. Compared to the bottles I had in 2015 and 2016, this bottle is showing some decline. Nevertheless, it is still very enjoyable so I am not at all disappointed.
Medium ruby, still almost as dark as the 2005 Greysac but shading to garnet a bit earlier. Red currants and cherries here plus cassis, leather and cedar. Still has that Poujeaux charm on the mid-palate; ripe and generous. Memories of past greatness show up on the lovely finish.
