Love this high acid green apple bomb! Crisp and well balanced. Light citrus on the nose with a lingering lime on the palate. What a great Sunday afternoon sipper we have here! — 9 years ago

This afternoon at lunch we had open the 2011 Chateau Lynch Bages. 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Petit Verdot. A very productive and enjoyable lunch.

At open the nose was quite muted. We had to vigorously swirl in order to get the notes of dark fruit, dark cherry, chocolate, tobacco, herbal notes, and a minerality.

On the palate the dark cherry comes through nicely with dark plum following to the mid palate, blackberry, black currant, tobacco, a fine licorice and mocha.

This is a full bodied wine with medium + acidity, medium + chewy tannins which leads to a long enjoyable finish. It all worked together well with the New York Strip Steak that was a true delight.

Continue having a wonderful week and please, nothing is more important then your safety. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 8 years ago

This was a delight... the '05 is drinking so we'll right now it felt like much more of a "special" bottle than its price point. I need more of this! Had lots of sediment... def. decant for an hour or more. — 8 years ago

Moving fuel. 42 year old Tempranillo and a uniquely American delicacy to celebrate Independence Day 🧀 🇺🇸 I’m unpacking boxes and listening to the Padres vs Dodgers so other than the wine I’m full throttle Americana today. The Vina Todonia cork dropped in to the bottle immediately upon contact from the Durand so I was not hopeful....but it’s totally intact and it presents with significant bricking in the decanter with expected brown and red tones and is chock full of secondary notes of burnt fig, savory smoke, cigar and soil. Soft tannins and waning acidity but it seems to be putting on “weight” as the afternoon progresses. Another solid showing from this producer at an advanced age. Great stuff. Happy 4th of July to all!! 🍎 ⚾️ 🍷 ☀️ — 6 years ago

Despite the dumb name, this was a perfect afternoon sipper. Fresh, light and crisp. This pale pink wine is dry, has subtle berry flavors and is a touch tart. — 8 years ago

How else to warm up for a trade tasting of invigorating Champagne this afternoon? Penetrating Sercial Madeira from the year that brought us the Boy Scouts of America. If wine were merit badges perhaps I'd nearly be an Eagle by now... After this evening's tasting I'll have quite a heavy merit badge sash for Champagne -an obsession that can reach no surfeit -it becomes more fascinating and evermore nuanced. For the moment however I'm awash in crushed kumquats in honey, marmalade, hazelnuts and roast peanuts -all layered among so much more in one of the richest Sercial Madeiras I've tried to date. — 9 years ago

A belated birthday treat courtesy of Daragh and Kara. Great acidity and tannin providing a great frame for the fruit, herb and earth notes. A true delight! — 9 years ago
