In a few words ...
A legendary vintage, Lynch-Bages 2005 is characterized by aromatic finesse, opulent tannins and a delicious finish.
"Irreproachable in its presentation, with its deep ruby color, this 2005 wins us over with its powerful bouquet that reveals aromas of black fruits, gingerbread, toast and leather. Full-bodied and fleshy, the palate is supported by elegant tannins leading to a silky finish. A bottle to open in four or five years with a fillet of beef."

Wine Empyreumatic | Fruity | Spicy
Taste
The Pauillacs are vigorous and tannic, which softens with age which allows the tannins to melt and give a nice and round structure.
