1978 Chateau Lynch-Bages, Pauillac, Bottle (750ml) [high shoulder]

Description

Served with Mr. Katz at 28-50 in London, it has a delectable leafy, herbaceous bouquet with potent sous-bois scents firmly in the driving seat. Great definition and lift. The palate is medium-bodied, well balanced, more austerity than I have found on other bottles, a little attenuated towards the herbaceous finish but a Claret with more joie de vivre than it knows what to do with. Just a delicious bottle of Claret. (NM)” (January 2011)
