(Château Lynch-Bages) Intriguing tart plum and graphite nose; soft black fruit entry, with charcoal, coffee and minerals, firm tannins, needs a few years; medium finish

This was a very good if not profound Lynch Bages. Showing Pauillac typicity with cassis, pencil lead and earthy notes on the nose with a trace of BBQ smoke. Medium to full-bodied with some tannins still to be resolved. Good length and enough mouth-watering acidity to keep me coming back for more. This should see some upside with another 5 years or so in the cellar.

like some many 2006's, this is fabulous, but just a baby and has years ahead of it - it seems a very underrated vintage - rated as tasted today - leave for at least three years

Nez de mine de crayon, avec un petit côté fumé, cèdre et tabac.
Les tanins fondus, mais le vin ne manque pas d'énergie. Il est à point et s’exprime en finesse, un classique Pauillac bien droit, en pleine forme, quelle classe! Délicieux. Rien ne presse, mais il est superbe en l’état. 93-94 pts

Opened and realised it was still very young and needed plenty of air.
Decanted a total of 12 hours and it really did not change the wine that much. Still mostly primary. Very tannic and young.
It is a good, well made wine but it is just too young to fully appreciate right now. Wait ten more years.

Tannins are strong upon opening but at about hour 3 the fruits start matching up making for a beautiful wine. Lots of life and energy ahead but approachable now with time open.
