October 28, 2023 - Birthday celebration part 2: So vibrant that I thought this was a strong vintage 80s left-bank from 89 or 90. Some greenness but the vibrant, savoury fruit dominated. Tertiary, balsamic notes emerged after a couple of hours.

June 10, 2016 - What a wonderful way to begin a 40th anniversary weekend. In the 21st Century, is there anything that lasts 40 months let alone 40 years?
The '76 Lynch Bages has stood the test of time as has our marriage. Still supple, round and full with light tones of cherry, leather and smoked wood. Certainly less complex than in its youth but isn't that true of any relationship? A marvel for its age...3 people found this helpful Comments (1) -

February 17, 2012 - Beautiful mature colour, brick red with mahogany hue. It has blackcurrant, smoky, meaty and savoury nose. Fantastic bodied although it has mellow down, showing blackcurrant and tobacco with a drying finish. Very good and enjoyable.
