Sipping Fine Wine

9.3

Founded by Donn and Molly Chappelet in 1967 on renowned Pritchard Hill. A blend of 79% Cab Sauv, 12% Petit Verdot & 9% Malbec. Deep Ruby with purple edges, aromas of dark berry fruits, cedar, cacao and sweet herbs. On the palate rich flavors of blackberry and currants with sweet oak and herbs with a great mouthfeel. Soft fine tannins, long ending with fruit and sweet oak. Will improve but great now! — 5 years ago

Just love these old Lynch Bages as they made so many great wines in off vintages. The 79 from an owc is sweet on the palate showing red cherry, cassis, cedar, earth, leather, mineral & tobacco. — 7 years ago

Garnet and quite transparent. Aromas of chocolate mint, fried leaves and twigs, black cherries, prunes and even a piece of coconut. Lighter bodied, has a laminated mouthfeel, perky acidity and sneaky bitter tannin. Flavors of cherry cola, table grapes, toasty oak and chocolate mint. — 9 years ago

It smells like honey and apricot, with a tartness that is understated.

The taste is fruity and juicy on the palate. The acidity is moderate and the impression of sweetness is strong. — 5 years ago

In magnum..luv the foil cap..."it goes to eleven". 1 hour decant (little sediment). A transfixing inky red color. On the nose: blue fruit, floral, cassis, black fruit. Taste: BlackBerry, graphite, minerals, smoke..semi firm tannins and a plush mouthfeel lead to a med- long finish...has more time to go. From the Rock Block series..names diff blocks for his favorite songs or albums. — 6 years ago
