Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Cabernet Sauvignon Blend

Still hanging in and apparently not in decline for a while. Very subtle very nice

Well. I wish I could say we loved it. But we didn't. A bit too much lanolin. Elegance but no fruit. Underwhelming.

This bottle still had some interest but definitely moving towards the door.. Tasted blind, many thought old Cali as the fruit core felt quite ripe.

From a recently purchased owc showing the classic LB personality of red cherry, black berry fruit, cassis, leather, menthol, graphite, sweet savory spices & tobacco. This has been fully mature for a while where perfectly stored btls are still drinking well.

Still fresh showing the classic LB character with red & black fruits, cassis, earth, saddle leather, menthol, sweet spice & cigar box

Drinking well showing the classic Lynch Bages personality with its red & black fruits, cassis, pencil, cedar, leather, sweet savory spice & tobacco

This was singing tonight showing notes of black fruits, pencil, leather, cedar, sweet spice & tobacco. Rich & full bodied on the palate drinking much younger than its 46 yrs.

I love these old Lynch Bages where the 76 was classic LB from an owc showing notes of cassis, currant, cedar, sweet jammy spice, leather & tobacco.

Still fresh showing red & black fruits, sweet spices, carob, cedar, mocha, leather, earth & tobacco. From an owc
