Without a doubt one of the more pleasing 2009s I’ve had, without any of the cooked fruit that I’ve found in so many wines from this vintage. This was fresh, if not overly complex, and made for enjoyable drinking.

My first bottle opening of a 2009 Bordeaux. We’ve tasted a number of 2009’s, this is the first one we’ve opened. Showing the glory of 2009, even in a lesser bottling. I’ll say it again, for the value buyer of Bordeaux’s, buy good producers second, third or other wines. 2009, perhaps, the best Bordeaux vintage since 1982. Good first look to judge better more expensive, quality producers of 2009 Bordeaux wines for when to best open your first. I would say those need another 8-10 years more in bottle to have them fully shine to buying expectations. Family member from the Jean-Michel Cazes family that brings us Lynch Bages. The 2009 shows better on its own than with our Wagyu Ribcap. It simply shows the elegant beauty of the vintage. It brings similarities to 1982. It shows velvet tannins with ripe, ruby fruits of; blackberries, black raspberries, black cherries, poached strawberries & raspberries. Bay leaf, wet clay, dark spice with heat, limestone, dry, crushed rocks, nutmeg, clove, soft cinnamon & understated vanillin, black licorice, dry twig, spearmint, tough leather, dry tobacco, graphite, oak barrel shavings with fresh & slightly withering; dark, red, purple florals. Acidity for days. Straight up; lush, well knitted and balanced finish that persists nicely for minutes. Photos of; Chateau Ormes de Pez, Saint-Estephe vineyard, inside the Chateau-breakfast room and their barrel room. 1/15/21

Dark cassis, red florals and milk chocolate on the nose. Blackberries, dark cherries, cooked strawberries, creamed raspberries, dry cranberries, sawdust, spice, tea, some cola, the high tannins are resolving, lower acid, juicy fruits make for an enjoyable finish. Great value wine for a 2009. Drinks well now and for the next 10 plus years. Made by The technical team at Lynch Bages.

Etiqueta manchada pero vino "spotless" concentrado y seductivo como sólo puede producir Saint-Estèphe. Disfrutándolo con the original five.
