In the zone. Nose is confectionery city with all types of citrus and apricot. Wow the brown sugar confection is not to be messed with. A stunning nose. Some dried honey as well. Palate is super pure and crisp with wonderful freshness, elegance and delicate, cleansing acidity. Sappy and so so pure. Great, delicate concentration and such a nimble wine. Wonderful and so so long. After some air it’s crazy aromatic. Stunning. Superbly mineral now and just wafting. — 4 years ago

I tasted the 1982 Lynch-Bages twice within a month, both at a private dinner in London and at the château, from bottle and double-magnum on separate occasions. Both vindicate an exceptionally fine 1982, perhaps a bit overlooked in a vintage full of stars. Curiously, the bottle in Bordeaux does not fully deliver the mesmerizing freshness and energy compared to the bottle in London: pencil-lead-tinged black fruit intermixed with clove and freshly-rolled tobacco. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, perhaps just a little austere compared to its peers. Yet, indeed, the bottle in London exudes class and composure with a detailed, mineral-driven vintage belying that year's unseasonably warm period. Superb. Tasted both in London at a private dinner and at the château. (Neal Martin, Vinous, July 2023) — 3 years ago

Smells like fresh oysters, lemon zest and chalk.. if that makes sense... bubbles are very delicate, wine is very tart with a creamy texture. Hands down my favorite Champagne in the GH Mumm line. — 9 years ago

Incredibly layered stuff, with teeth-staining minerality, balanced by rich fruit flavors, bordering on tropical with plenty of grilled lemon juiciness in reserve. Never-ending finish with a complex tannic grip providing lift and energy. Thru 2020, at least. — 11 years ago

Deep ruby color. Aromas of raspberry, blackberry, black currant and licorice. Wow, great wine! Full of blackberry, blueberry and cedar finish. Decanted for 8 hrs.

Sourced from the Walla Walla Rocks District, this opens with Umami and nori tones that mingle with Mandarin orange rind, and guava puree tones that all dance in the glass. The palate is plush, showing off its silky texture. Layers of bright red fruits collide with minerals, charcuterie, citrus rind accents and stony undertones on the palate. Sinfully good in its youth, this beautiful wine will cellar well over the next decade. Drink 2020-2030- 94 — 6 years ago
