Upon tasting a 1990 bottle from Rousseau this consignor had an epiphany and his passion for wine was ignited. He began collecting over 20 years ago, purchasing through auctions and on travels abroad. His bottles were stored in temperature and humidity-controlled wine cabinets prior to arriving at Iron Gate.
The score for 1989 Chateau Lynch Bages Pauillac is 99 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - One of the all-time great vintages for this château is the 1989 Lynch-Bages, a striking wine that offers up pure and intense aromas of cassis, pencil shavings, spring flowers and hints of cigar wrapper. Full-bodied, deep and multidimensional, it's seamless and concentrated, with a rich core of fruit, ripe tannins and a beautifully defined finish. Still an infant at age 32, it surpasses all three of Pauillac's first growths in 1989.
