TN: 1990 Château Lynch-Bages (France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Pauillac)

  • 1990 Château Lynch-Bages - France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Pauillac (7/3/2009)
    Always a spectacular wine. Textbook Lynch-Bages with tobacco leaf, graphite and cassis. Very mineral and savory for quite a while, but 4 hours after sitting in a decanter there is getting a sweeter core of black cherry fruit that is finally coming out. Faintly dry on the finish but overall much more supple and sily than a few years ago. This is rounding into form, still quite young with plenty of time ahead. (94 pts.)
