Details
Château Lynch-Bages 1996
Pauillac, 5ème cru classé
In original wooden case
Tasting note: The 1996 exhibits a dark plum/ruby/purple color that is just beginning to lighten at the edge, surprisingly velvety tannins and a classic Pauillac bouquet of lead pencil shavings, cedarwood, black currants, sweet cherries and spice box. This medium to full-bodied, elegant, savory, broad wine is still five years away from full maturity. It should continue to drink well for another 10-15 years. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 196, August 2011
