Good looking bottle and fill. Reddish tawny, brighter and younger looking than the 94 Dominus mag next to it. Fruit forward nose. Notes of red currant fruit, plums, gravel stone, some cassis and a little cigar box. Pleasant in the mouth. Still has some structure to go with the fruit. Shorter than desired finish. Most liked this over the Dominus.

Beautiful Bordeaux! Structured with soft tannins. Great nose of cedar and leather. Balanced with a long finish. Yummy!

typical '86 with power, but ever so slightly over-mature (questionable cork & storage)

Classic lunch box, silky whole milk mouthfeel, mostly secondary but just a hint of dark brooding fruit

Wow oh wow. Older vintages of this wine never cease to amaze me. #lynchbages #bordeaux

Very youthful bottle. Red cherry and currant, nice cedar notes, vibrant acidity.
