Lynch Bages 1983

Lynch-Bages

Case Format: 6x75cl

Max score: 90.0

The estate’s reputation as a top quality wine producer took off in 1945 after a series of exceptional vintages. Since then, Lynch-Bages has continued to produce excellent wines, even during years considered difficult in the Bordeaux region. The wine’s deep colour and tannic backbone have become part of its signature style. Jean-Michel Cazes, grandson of Jean-Charles, has worked hard to develop and refine the wine’s supple and smooth structure over the years. Vintage after vintage, the estate’s precise and excellent winemaking techniques have served to firmly establish Lynch-Bages reputation for consistent quality.

Neal Martin

Ex-cellar bottle tasted blind at the Lynch Bages vertical. This has a light nose, mulberry, a touch of wild mushroom, sloe and a touch of caramel. Moderate definition. Palate is medium-bodied, quite rustic tannins, mulberry, touch of leather, the acidity a little sharp and attacking. Course, peppery finish. This is not bad, but is beginning to dry out a little. Drink now. Tasted September 2009.

Robert M. Parker, Jr.

Fully mature for many years, this dark garnet-colored offering reveals some amber at the edge along with hints of herbs, seaweed, olive, cedar, and fading red and black fruit. In the mouth, the fruit is being taken over by the wine’s tannin and acidity. Much of its character and soul have disappeared.
