La Lagune - 1982 (750ml) Tokaj structured wine with gobs ofUnquestionably the greatest La Lagune until the 2005 was conceived, the 1982 exhibits a dense ruby purple tinged color along with a big, sweet bouquet of black cherries, licorice, smoky toast, and forest floor, a plush, medium to full bodied mouthfeel, and sweet tannin. It is close to full maturity, and should keep for another decade. Release price: ($65. 00 case) Robert Parker 92 points
