The 2002 Raymond-Lafon, tasted from magnum, doesn't have the intensity of the 2005 on the nose and is perhaps the least enticing of this era. It just seems to lack a bit of presence. The palate is better with a tang of marmalade and orange rind, quite compact towards the finish. It needs a bit more length. At least there is freshness here, but I would drink any bottles now.
