Like this wine- easy to drink with hints of berries. Can go with many different types of cuisines even lighter flavored ones. — 6 years ago

Still huge. Can age another 5-10 yrs and will be more well integrated. Tannins were big. It outshone the clerc milon. — 10 years ago

#KWN Wine 14. Cherry and mocha flavors. Hints of smokiness. I think by this point my palate was gone and again Nothing compared to what ended up being the Duhart-Milon. Former WS Wine of the Year. — 7 years ago

Tonight was our own micro Judgement of Paris with our friend Jean who makes Clerc Milon. It was a dual of 96's. 96 BVT vs. 96 Lynch Bages. Seems fair, right??? Two mostly comparable producers from the same year. Not sure how you make it much more fair. While both wines were very enjoyable, there has to be a winner right? The BVT; thicker, more broad, darker, more baking spice, finishing with a touch of Caramel & Congac. The Lynch Bages; bright dark and light cherries, soft, pure with the Bordeaux earthiness. Oh...forgot to mention, we tasted them blind. So, who won...CA or Bordeaux? We all agreed it was the BVT. Especially, early on. After an hour, it got a little closer but the BVT prevailed. Fun side by side tasting. One of the best I've done in awhile. — 8 years ago

Very enjoyable and drinkable now. Brighter red fruit notes compared to the 96 clerc milon; softer tannins; longer finish — 10 years ago

Really need to give time to decant. 2+ hours. Velvety soft structure but still hints of the youthful power. Reminiscent a Clerc-Milon — 8 years ago
