Château le Crock Cru Bourgeois 1982
The wine
Concentrated and full-bodied, these wines can sometimes seem tannic. Michel Rolland has recently begun supervising their vinification, and so they have a promising future.
This château is one of the best crus bourgeois; the vines are very productive, benefiting from the same care that is lavished on those belonging to the prestigious Château Léoville Poyferré.
