CHATEAU LYNCH BAGES 1982 |

Château Lynch Bages 1982 Pauillac, 5ème Cru Classéu. 6vts, 1ts, 2 levels into the neck, scuffed and slightly cellar-soiled labels and capsules, 1 slightly raised cork, 2 slightly sunken corks, slightly corroded capsules, packed in a 12-bottle caseOn New Year's Eve 2017 and from magnum, we thought this was stunning, exemplary top Pauillac. Rich, voluptuous and mouth-coating, its overall balance and generosity live on, especially in this format where it can, obviously, go the distance, with its textbook structure and ripe fruit. In 2018 and from magnum, you can really sink into this with total pleasure. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 939 bts (owc)Estimates are per lot
