Continuing to develop gracefully, the 1983 La Lagune is close to full maturity. The color remains a healthy dark ruby. The nose offers up those aromatic, plummy, roasted nut, black-cherry scents that remind me of a red burgundy. Soft, round, expansive flavors reveal fine richness and depth, and the low acidity and moderate tannins give the wine definition and uplift. The finish is long, crisp, and exuberant.
Extremely well crafted with a firm, polished structure. Grapey, vanilla and chocolate aromas and flavors with a full body and long caressing finish
