2003 Château Lynch-Bages

Community Tasting Note

92 Points

Saturday, April 27, 2024 - Popped and poured. This is a medium-red wine—the color and texture feel totally age appropriate for a 21-year-old Bordeaux—with some mild sediment cake throughout the bottle. On the rather serious nose, I get damp soil, stones, pencil shavings, and saddle leather. In the mouth, the wine is midweight and focused, showing light red fruit and leaving a lingering, chewy finish. Overall, this is classic Pauillac down the line; I didn’t notice any heat or other issues from the 2003 vintage. I found this wine open and enjoyable today, but it should easily continue to fly for another 10+ years. 92 points.
