Château Cordeillan Bages

Château Lynch-Bages

Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1990

1990 vintage. Last tasted 12.11.22 (9.6) and 8.20.16 (9.2-slightly off bottle). Tasted side by side with the 1989 (9.4) version of this wine. Ridiculous 1-2 heavyweight punch. Opened but not decanted. Tasted at the conclusion of lunch after an hour open. Not much in the nose but bringing it in the flavors. Still heavy bits of ripe plum and cherry with a substantial mid-palate. Larger format of this wine likely clocks in as a 9.6/9.7 but this was a 750ml. In the 750ml format, not improving and it's drink now and until 2028. Still, most likely, the best wine this producer has ever made. The 1989 has a case as well. Like the Lebowski rug, this one just tied the late-80's/early-90's BDX room together. 10.10.25. — 3 days ago

Pla de Bages Mandó 2021

Lovely, fresh strawberries, some raspberry, cloves, and a super nice forest undergrowth note. Enticing!
Light on the palate, aetheric, yet with some juicy acidity and a light tannic touch. Lovely mouthfeel, juicy, so fresh, so good friendly. Ending with a warm, spicy note.
Aged in amphorae.
Such a lovely wine!

Château Haut-Bages Libéral

Pauillac de Haut-Bages Libéral 2015

2015 vintage. The anti-Pauillac. Lean. Light. Feminine. Oodles of graphite with delicate earth note framing. Substantive, yet hushed, push towards a happy finish. This is just beginning to find itself. 04.11.25. — 6 months ago

Pla de Bages 5 Merlot 2021

Textbook Merlot nose, plum & red fruit backed with sweet vanilla oak.
On the palate this has surprising freshness and lightness of touch. The 14% alc is perfectly integrated. Juicy & fresh, quite savoury, quite delicious.
The tannins are a tad dry, but otherwise - a lovely wine.
