Aroma of plums and dusty dark fruit. A dry initial taste with layers of taste as it finishes. A medium tannic finish. — 10 days ago

One of the best. Love the chili pepper flavor with dark and milk chocolates. Cinnamon and vanilla are secondary. The spice is what sets this apart from other beers in this style. Needs no pairing. — 5 years ago

In the style of a German Maibock, a deep honey color with a toffee aroma and a balanced malt/bitter ratio.

The 2019 Lynch Bages is every bit as magnificent from bottle as it was from barrel, if not moreso. What a wine! Towering and vertical in its bearing, the 2019 is a total stunner. There is plenty of Lynch Bages charm, but what distinguishes the 2019 most is its spine of tannin and energy. Time in the glass brings out sweet red cherry, plum, blood orange and pomegranate and mint. The 2019 is a great, great, great Lynch Bages. It reminds me of the epic 1989, but with the youthful grip of this vintage. A towering Pauillac, the 2019 Lynch Bages will make a great addition to any cellar. (Antonio Galloi, Vinous, February 2022)

That could be my most favorite “sour” ever. It is like in between a sour and a not sour. — 6 years ago

Meaty and dense in the nose. Tobacco and leather. A whiff of iodine and a savory and still there palate. Some fresh and pretty fruit still which is kinda epic. Fascinating — 2 years ago

So, on this, my 45th birthday, I brought a 1964 Scavino to dinner that I bought in ALBA, IT. It was dead. Like, dead dead. So, out came the wine list and we ended up with this 2006 Conterno. It was terrific. I love both producers and we all know that 1964 was epic so I took a chance, but 55 years proves too many for this particular bottle. We had a splendid evening and the nubile 13 year old Conterno was simply exquisite. — 6 years ago
