Last Tasted 7/92Most 1983 white burgundies have begun to lose their fruit and display the enormous levels of alcohol they possess. While the 1983 Louis Latour Corton-Charlemagne has always been one of the most successful wines of the vintage, this bottle is just beginning to slip in quality. It has been a gorgeously opulent, rich, honeyed, extremely powerful example of white burgundy, with well over 14% alcohol. The fruit covered the alcohol during its first 5-6 years of life, but now the alcohol's heat can be felt. If you are cellaring stocks of this wine, I would opt for drinking it up as quickly as possible.
