A charming, lush, round, generous Lynch Bages, the 1999 offers plenty of sweet black currant fruit, damp earth, licorice, cedarwood and spicy herb-like characteristics.

Tasting note
1999年的靚次伯來自聲名顯赫的波亞克產區,是波爾多釀酒藝術的典範。這款酒體中等,活潑的黑加侖子、櫻桃和小紅莓香氣與迷人的辛辣基調相得益彰。口感上,黑醋栗、濕潤的泥土、甘草和雪松木的味道交織在一起,伴隨著細微的草本香氣。酒的風味鮮明,單寧圓潤,口感飽滿,沒有任何生硬的邊緣,展現了其成熟的優雅。酒體適中,尾韻悠長,回味中帶有果香和甘草,這個有些被低估的年份現在已經可以享用,並且在未來十年內都適宜飲用,特別是搭配烤羊肉或紅酒燉牛肉等豐盛菜餚。
The 1999 Chateau Lynch-Bages, hailing from the renowned Pauillac appellation, is a testament to the art of Bordeaux winemaking. This vintage exudes a medium-bodied profile, brimming with a vibrant blend of cassis, cherry, and cranberry notes, complemented by a delightful spicy undertone. The palate is graced with a tapestry of black currant, damp earth, licorice, and cedarwood, woven together with subtle herb-like hints. The wine's savory character and well-rounded tannins culminate in a broad and satisfying mouthfeel, with no hard edges to detract from its fully matured elegance. With a nice length and a finish that echoes with fruit and liquorice, this somewhat underrated vintage is ready to be savored now and over the next decade, especially when paired with hearty dishes like roast lamb or beef bourguignon.
