2003 CHÂTEAU LYNCH BAGES 5ème Cru Classé Pauillac

2003 CHÂTEAU LYNCH BAGES 5ème Cru Classé Pauillac

Grapes: Merlot  Cabernet Sauvignon  Cabernet Franc  Origin: France, Bordeaux
Lea & Sandeman review
Rich and dense, but not the dense concentration of Pontet Canet, for example. Velvety and pure, very harmonious on the palate. Power builds and the finish comes through with plums and black cherries and lots of ripe rich tannins. There is a lovely length to the fruit.

Other reviews and comments
Attractively 'molten' nose as though all the elements have engaged together to produce something truly complex. Absolutely classic. Gentle texture with resolved tannins, fully ripe fruit notes and some complexity. 2009-13   17.5

James Suckling, The Wine Spectator
After tasting the 2003 Lynch Bages on four separate occasions, I came away believing it is excellent, possibly outstanding, but not one of the greatest efforts from this estate. Made from yields of 43 hectolitres per hectare, this blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Petit Verdot exhibits a saturated ruby colour with purple nuances. Fragrant cassis, currant, earth, and oak aromas are followed by a medium-bodied offering with excellent depth, low acidity, and a plump, round, juicy style. If it fills out, it will merit an outstanding score, but at this stage, it is well behind the level of the fabulous 2000. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2018.   89/100
