Description
Winemaker Note
Today, the wine exhibits lovely bold cedar nose with good structure as it fills the palate with ripe, intense, juicy plums, cassis and spice. 1990 Lynch Bages juxtaposes power with elegance with a potential to age and develop further.
99 Wine Advocate
This magnificent Lynch Bages has been drinking well since the day it was released and it continues to go from strength to strength. The biggest, richest, fullest-bodied Lynch Bages until the 2000, the fully mature 1990 exhibits an unbelievably explosive nose of black currants, cedarwood, herbs and spice. The majestic, classically Bordeaux aromatics are followed by a full-bodied, voluptuously textured, rich, intense wine with superb purity as well as thrilling levels of fruit, glycerin and sweetness. This beauty should continue to provide immense pleasure over the next 15+ years.
94 Wine Spectator
Aromas of tar, currant and berries follow through to a full-bodied palate, with silky tannins and a long, long finish....
