" A lovely, medium-weight wine that has been very well vinified, the 1980 Pichon-Lalande is delightful for current drinking. The bouquet offers spicy, cedary scents intermingled wih copious ripe aromas of black currants. This is a soft, velvety, very nicely concentrated wine from a vintage considered poor to mediocre. Anticipated maturity: Now."
