Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate July - 2015
Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
The nose is impressive after three decades with melted tar, a touch of peppermint and delineated black fruit that seem to gain intensity with each passing moment in the glass. Strangely those secondary notes of bay leaf and dried herbs make way for more primal fruit-derived scents with aeration! The palate does not disappoint. Medium rather than full-bodied, beautifully defined tannins and supremely well-judged acidity, this Lynch-Bages is just so well balanced. Hints of black truffle and sandalwood unfold towards the finish that has disarming purity and great persistence.

Shockingly Ruby for a wine of this age. The color belies its age. On the nose, soft crushed rose petal red fruits, acacia, musk, faint cedar and just a hint of sweet tobacco and dark cherry, gravel, wet stones, blackberry, cocoa. Dissolves into raisinated fruits. This wine is just getting started. It’s lovely now but has a long life ahead of it!

Strong ruby, slightly lightened rim. Magnificent nose, almost beguiling, wilted flowers, ripe cherry fruit, green pepper over it, complex, builds in the glass, mocha aromas and some black tea join in, magnificent. The palate is open-hearted, very accessible, creamy texture, still some tannin and a superbly integrated acidity, warm, full-bodied but balanced. Finishes long and lingering on dark fruits and ripe plum fruit. Wonderfully matured and still in great shape. Now until 2030+.

Medium ruby garnet, broader ocher rim. On the nose fine nuances of cassis, dark berries, delicate orange zest, very inviting, multi-faceted bouquet. On the palate substantial, sweet and elegant, fine, perfectly integrated tannins, adheres very well, nougat on the finish, delicately of lingonberries, appears very youthful overall, good aging potential, perfect to drink now, a classic claret from Pauillac, shows great length and has a future.

This ready to go Pauillac starts off with in all the right ways, with its cedar chest, cassis, tobacco and forest floor profile. Smooth, soft, medium/full bodied, with a blast of cassis and tobacco and cassis in the finish. There is no reason to wait for more aging, this is clearly ready, willing and able to deliver.

We had a case of this once but finished it ages ago, it was so delicious. Three bottles, all bought recently from Berry Bros, were opened. The first was stunning, absolutely all the subtlety, balance and ripe fruit you expect from a top claret.

Château Lynch Bages

Château Lynch-Bages produces Fifth Growth Médoc wines according to the 1855 classification and a second wine called Echo de Lynch-Bages which is not classified. Under the Pauillac appellation, Château Lynch-Bages vineyard extends over more than 1,200 hectares.

Château Lynch-Bages wine follows the line of great Pauillacs. Composed mainly of Cabernet Sauvignon, it combines structure and finesse, elegance and longevity. It also stands out for its opulence. Generous from its youth, it evolves in its maturity towards more flavors and complexity. The style of Château Lynch-Bages wines refines over the years, gaining in suppleness and smoothness, while the consistency of the wines establishes over time.

To this day, Château Lynch-Bages is characterized by its extraordinary qualitative homogeneity. Powerful, refined and open, vintage after vintage the wine acquires greater precision, combining distinction with the hedonistic character that forms its personality.
