Château Lynch-Bages 1985
12 bottles per lot
Château Lynch-Bages 1985 Pauillac, 5ème cru classé In original wooden case. Good appearance. Levels:seven base of neck and five top-shoulder Tasting note: Nearly 20 notes from an opaque, fleshy, spicy pipette-full followed by a cask sample in May 1986. Fragrant and well clad the following April and an early almost startlingly virile development. At five years of age: deep, black cherry intensity; crisp, minty, pure blackcurrant aroma; overall dry, fairly concentrated. ‘A masculine’ 85. Needs time and food’. This was at a tasting I conducted for Cathay Pacific in Hong Kong. The managing director, also at the tasting, being Rod Eddington, now the boss of British Airways! Then, by the age of 15, the wine was fully evolved, fragrant, sweeter, very positive. Most recently: still pretty deep, its bouquet almost too extravert and trying too hard to live up to the expectation (and price). But good. Last noted at dinner with a Japanese wine expert Rie Yoshitaki and three Chinese wine enthusiasts in the Cassis restaurant, Berkeley Square in London in Dec 2000 ***** Now – 2020 M.B. 12 bottles per lot
