This Ontario based consignor is a lifelong wine enthusiast who began building his collection in the 1970s. Despite humble beginnings, he developed a deep appreciation for wine early on, especially French vintages. Over the years, he amassed hundreds of bottles and traveled with his family to wine regions around the world to explore the people, land, and craft behind each bottle. In every home, he built a wine cellar maintained at 11–12°C with stable humidity. A personal touch: he always covered the floor in small pebbles to help prevent bottles from breaking if dropped. Now, after decades of collecting, he is ready to share many of these exceptional wines so others can enjoy and appreciate them as he has.
1982 Chateau Lynch Bages Pauillac from this lot has the following scores - Jean-Marc Quarin 97 points, Vinous 95 points, James Suckling 95 points, Jeff Leve The Wine Cellar Insider 95 points, John Kapon Vintage Tastings 95 points, Adrian van Velsen - vvWine.ch 95 points. This is the tasting note for 1982 Chateau Lynch Bages Pauillac from Robert Parker - My last bottle of the 1982 Lynch-Bages continues to drink very well indeed, exhibiting rich aromas of crème de cassis, blackberries, licorice, sweet loamy soil and cigar wrapper. Full-bodied, broad and unctuous, it's fleshy and textural, with sweet, ripe tannins, low acidity and a long, expansive finish. It's fully mature, but it hasn't evolved much over the last decade.
