Tasting Notes | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Slightly austere, leafy and herbal, the fresh 1998 lacks concentration, fat and fruit depth. It reveals a hint of herbs interwoven with attractive red and black currant aromas, but the wine falls off on the palate, and requires drinking up as it is likely to become increasingly desiccated. Score: 87 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com 31 August 2011 |

This austere, medium-weight Lynch Bages reveals notes of new saddle leather, tobacco, olives, and black fruits. Although not a big, concentrated Pauillac, it is graceful, elegant, with character and style. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2016. Score: 89 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2003-2016 01 April 2001 |
