CHÂTEAU LYNCH-BAGES 1982 (1) Pauillac. 5ième Cru Classé u. vts. soiled & scraped label. scuffed capsule. WA 93 CHÂTEAU LYNCH-BAGES 1985 (1) Pauillac. 5ième Cru Classé u. hs. marked & soiled label. corrosion on capsule. CHÂTEAU LYNCH-BAGES 1989 (1) Pauillac. 5ième Cru Classé stained label. I have tasted the Château Lynch Bages 1989 several times since my last penned note in 2010. It is such a consistent wine, a Pauillac that never lets you down. Here it continues to sport a relatively backward blackberry and cedar scented nose, the graphite (pencil box) element a little more accentuated. The aromatic purr like a Bentley, unraveling with each swirl of the glass. The palate is very well defined with a rigid structure, well-judged acidity and hints of chestnut and cooked meat offering secondary notes on the dense finish that suggest a long drinking plateau. What a stupendous wine from Jean-Michel-Cazes! Tasted June 2014. Drink: 2014-2030 WA 95 CHÂTEAU LYNCH-BAGES 1996 (1) Pauillac. 5ième Cru Classé u. bn. marked label. The palate is medium-bodied with fine supple tannin, well-judged acidity, a gentle grip in the mouth, and plenty of lightly spiced and surprisingly intense fruit on the bravura finish. The Cazes family oversaw a very sophisticated Lynch-Bages in this vintage that may well surpass many peoples' expectations. Tasted January 2016 Drink: 2018-2035 WA 93 4 bts. per lot $1,400 - $1,600
