Cherry compote, black currant and smoky mulberry; light leather and English tea notes. Lavender and cassis. Black currant dominates a palate rife with smoky blackberry and dark tobaccos, bakers chocolate and dark raisins. Decidedly rich and adumbral. #chateaulynchbages #lynchbages #pauillac #grandcruclasséde1855 #appellationpauillaccontrôlée

Third course with the 06 Lynch Bages, Duck Confit with Pommes Landsies. The body is full. The tannins round but still big. The fruit is very dark; blackberries, dark cherries, black raspberries with ripe strawberries. More earthier than the others so far. Dry stones, crush rocks, tobacco leaf, some graphite, underbrush, cigar aftertaste, saddle-wood, tough leather, dark red dry flowers. Good acidity. The finish leans earth. It just needs more time in bottle...at least five years+.

Vin agréable sans défaut. Note de framboise, explosion de fruits rouges en bouche. Ne m'a pas donner plus de frisson que ça.

Every time we have this or something similar I ask myself, "why don't we drink more Bordeaux?"
