Description

One bottle taken from a wooden case of this wine which was bought on release.

Robert Parker gave it 99 points:

“This magnificent Lynch Bages has been drinking well since the day it was released and it continues to go from strength to strength. The biggest, richest, fullest-bodied Lynch Bages until the 2000, the fully mature 1990 exhibits an unbelievably explosive nose of black currants, cedarwood, herbs and spice. The majestic, classically Bordeaux aromatics are followed by a full-bodied, voluptuously textured, rich, intense wine with superb purity as well as thrilling levels of fruit, glycerin and sweetness. This beauty should continue to provide immense pleasure over the next 15+ years.” (August 2011).


Jancis Robinson 18.5/20

“When to drink: 1998 to 2022
Dark blackish ruby. Both sweet and lively - fresher than many 1990s are tasting in 2015. Very racy and vivacious still. Rich but with a light sensation of iron.” Tasted: 31-Mar-2015


Tom Cannavan 92/00

“Black. Not a chink of light. Very deep, dense brooding nose of almost stewed black fruits. Huge chocolatey richness, lovely licorice and tar components, spicy and cigar box notes too. Excellent, concentrated and loaded with extract. Will keep. Rather expensive.” Tasted: 1-Jan-1997

Neal Martin 97 points:

“Ex-cellar bottle tasted blind at the Lynch Bages vertical. A supremely well-defined nose with notes of macerated black cherries, cedar, dates, wild strawberry and pencil lead. Very opulent, almost voluptuous and yet still somehow, statesmanlike and regal. The palate is medium-bodied, powerful, firm think chewy tannins, touches of liquorice, very sweet and heady. Lovely wine, though not the breeding of the 1989 although a double magnum poured after the tasting is simply stunning in terms of its precocious fruit, its brashness and joie-de-vivre. Just a touch of volatility but utterly delicious and a double magnum was even more enthralling (98) Drink now-2025+.” Tasted September 2009.

The wine has been kept in a dark underground cellar since purchase. The bottle on sale is the one in the photographs and is in very good condition. The level is just above base of neck. The capsule and label are good, as shown.
