1996 Château Lynch-Bages

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend more

7/9/2016 - Zweder wrote: 92 points

In the bouquet dark forest fruits and vanilla from the beautifully dosed oak. On the palate at first not completely fresh, but that blew off. Classical with cassis and other dark berries, sweet spices, mild acidity and soft tannin. Imho this bottle is already quite mature, but certainly very nice. Many preferred this wine above the Ausone in the same flight. For me and a few others it was the other way around. (The wines were poured blind.)

The 1985 is a great success in a glorious decade for Lynch Bages: more complex and elegant than the dense and textural '82; more open-knit and expressive than the more stern and longer-lived '89. A projected bouquet of cedar, cassis, gravelly soil tones and subtle nori top notes is followed by a refined, intense and beautifully balanced wine with intense flavours and lovely complexity. Just beautiful claret.

Bt decanted for 4 hrs, med to deep crimson with bricking rim. Sweet cassis, dried leaves, tobacco and a hint of smoky coffee beans. Very smooth on palate, sweet but very fresh on the back of acidity and mildly noticible tannin, very refined. Not a very concentrated wine but plenty of aroma, power without weight. Sublime !

Wow. Complex, developed aromas of cassis, black and blue fruit, new leather, and pencil lead. Medium plus acidity and high, ultra fine, but still very pronounced, tannins. Long finish. Spectacular, but more time in the bottle will improve this for sure.

Opened up very fast in the glass to show apricot and peach. Acidity pretty low so not as taught with acidity as some. Very good with spicy food

Dinner at Marc's (Marc's Apartment - Chicago, IL): From half bottle. After the 1961 Trotanoy, we wanted to try it alongside another 1961 - this time, from the Left Bank. Grabbed the Lynch and popped and poured it directly from the cellar. Wasn't nearly as pristine as the Trot, but did have some nice qualities to it. The cedar, tobacco notes were lingering, but a lot of the fruit had gone away. I liked the wine, but it lived in the shadows of the Trot.

Tuesday Night Double Blind Tasting, $60+ (Bin 75): Tobacco and earth nose. Dark color. On the palate a little rich, but not too much, age is just about right. I went '95 Pauillac, but understand how the richness was probably more a character of 2000. In a pretty good spot.

Thursday Night Tasting with Tim and Friends: Classic graphite-minerally-black fruit aromas. Good, understated balance. I would guess that this only just started drinking nicely but I’m thinking this is a bit simple and direct, like 10 years from optimum drinkability. Just for now and for me, good not great, with potential to improve.

Very good. Mature. Fruit has waned and mostly secondary and more savory flavors of leather cigar box smoke barnyard. Nice long and smooth finish.

Consistent Bordeaux white with less creaminess and marmalade compared to some big Graves, but a structured and pleasant to drink blanc for the value.

Drinks perfectly. Light, no acidity whatsoever. So pleasurable. Don't think it will improve much from there but smoothness is optimal.

Slow O for a few hours, then decanted. Classic Bordeaux nose. On the palate, though there was fruit and the tannin was manageable, I found it somewhat disappointing for it's lack of depth and complexity (relative to what i expected). Never really opened up.

Ripe red and black fruit with some dark savories. Smooth palate progression and good finish with fine tannins at this point. Good condition, yet to develop its full complexity. 93-94+

Union Des Grand Cru of Bordeaux Tasting San Francisco, nose of black fruit, plum, black currants, and cedar, same on the palate, beautiful fruit but not quite together, needs 4 years to peak, big body, tasty, typical for the vintage, long but simple finish.

Decanted for 4 hours. Tonight coming from a 750ml. Nose was less beautiful than last time as it was mostly dominated by green pepper and grass. Palate however was more expressive with round and dark black fruit and truffle oil. There could be some bottle variation.

Grassy and "cat pee" on the nose especially when just opened. Strong acidity. No tropical notes to speak of - this definitely seems like an under-ripe or cooler Sauvignon Blanc

Four weeks ago without taking notes.
A bottel of satisfactory provenience kept in a winefridge the last 2 yrs.
Good dense colour with maturity.
Tertiary notes disappeared with air, licorice and red blue berryfruit dominated later.
Tannins were present and fine grained with interesting "sanding (or powdering?)out" in thequite long and homogenous finish.
Very good to excellent.
This is my second positive encouter with this wine after a demi 9years ago.
