($50, Laurent-Perrier USA): I was pleasantly surprised to find this Champagne still selling at the retail level at Garnet Wines and Liquors in Manhattan because most Champagnes from the excellent 2002 vintage have disappeared. It has the hallmark elegance of Laurent Perrier, a suave creaminess and lovely freshness despite 10 years of age. Judging from my past experience with Laurent-Perrier’s vintage Champagne, I suspect it has another decade to go, so if you can find it, buy it. 93 Michael Apstein Jun 5, 2012
