Château la Lagune vintage 2005 in large format
Haut-Medoc, 3ème Cru Classé

95/100 points Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate #176 April 2010

Lying duty & tax free ex-cellar Château la Lagune
1 Jeroboam (5 litres) in original wooden case

Tasting Note: "This is the finest wine made at this estate since 1982, and possibly the greatest La Lagune of all time. Its dense ruby/purple color is followed by an exquisite bouquet of spice box, incense, sweet unsmoked cigar tobacco, black cherry liqueur, forest floor, and subtle toasty oak. Reminiscent of a Cote de Nuits grand cru blended with a top-notch Bordeaux, this beauty possesses silky tannins, a broad, savory, expansive mouthfeel, and intrinsic precision as well as elegance. Moreover, this fabulous wine is a relative bargain for the vintage. Seamless and prodigious! Anticipated maturity: 2010-2025."
