Tasting Notes

Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book (4), December 2003

Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book (3), November 1998

Tannic and austere wine, yet amply endowed, the dark ruby/purple-colored 1996 La Lagune exhibits spicy new oak, attractive berry, plumlike fruit, and toughness on the palate. It possesses sweet fruit, and expands on the palate. This wine could turn out to merit an even higher rating. Anticipated maturity : 2004-2020.
