94 Points

Tuesday, August 10, 2004 - 1988 Lynch Bages, Pauillac, Bordeaux, France (not blind, from memory): Black purple, dense tears. Very dense dark nose, lead, lead pencil. Plump body, dense dark fruit, very well integrated acidity and tannins. Long finish, persistent tannins, very fine. Score: 50 + 5 for optic + 13 for bouquet + 18 for taste + 8 for overall = total score of 94. Very interesting wine, needs another 5-10 or more years to mature.

Tasted Aug 2004.

Magnum. Decanted 7 hours before drinking. Riedel Syrah glasses
