Ex-cellar bottle tasted blind at the Lynch Bages vertical. A simple nose: blackberry, a touch of bilberry, wild hedgerow, blackcurrant, a touch of grass. Touches of cooked meat coming through, reminds me of a Musigny in an obtuse way. The palate is full-bodied, firm tannins, a little powdery in texture but good cohesion with spicy black fruits, a touch of savoury, good weight, quite cohesive, correct finish. No frills Pauillac. Drink now-2015. Tasted September 2009. Score: 88 Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2010-2015 01 March 2010 |

Deep ruby-colored with a purple center, this wine displays ripe blackcurrant fruit, with no vegetal or weedy notes. Medium to full-bodied and ripe, with surprising softness, fatness, and precociousness for a wine from this vintage, Lynch-Bages' 1994 possesses well-integrated toasty oak, as well as an attractive, hedonistic style that should please the followers of this corpulent Pauillac. It should drink well now and over the next 12-15 years. Score: 88 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 1997-2012 28 February 1997 |
