{"product_id":"lynch-bages-2009-1-5l","title":"2009 Chateau Lynch-Bages, Pauillac, Magnum (1.5L)","description":"RP98 \"Performing even better from bottle than it did from barrel, this appears to be the finest Lynch Bages since the 2000, 1990 and 1989. According to the chateau, the 2009 has the highest level of polyphenols ever measured as well as high alcohol (nearly 13.5%). A blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest largely Merlot with touches of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, it is an expressive, voluptuously textured effort with unctuosity and powerful, juicy, succulent blackberry and black currant flavors, low acids, a layered, massive mouthfeel, but no sense of heaviness or fatigue. This exquisite Lynch Bages should drink well for 30+ years.\" RP Dec 2011\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nJD98 \"In the running for the greatest vintage ever from this château, the 2009 Château Lynch-Bages is pure Pauillac magic, offering a powerful bouquet of blackcurrants, freshly sharpened pencils, smoked tobacco, and gravelly earth. It's full-bodied, has a concentrated, structured mouthfeel, building yet beautifully integrated tannins, and a great, great finish. It's just now at the early stages of its prime drinking window and has another 30 years of prime drinking ahead of it. I wish I'd bought more on release. (Drink between 2024-2054)\" JD Aug 2024\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nJA98 \"Density, power, concentration, this is a full on Pauillac, with a ton of cassis and blueberry, liquorice, espresso, cocoa bean, with an intense muscular tannic frame. Precise architecture, it delivers on the promise that has been building for several years - muscular, ripped, will power for decades.\" JA for IB Sep 2024","brand":"Lynch Bages","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47542534734061,"sku":"BDX:LYN:LYNC-1500-2009-F0L0C0","price":395.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0319\/8592\/6203\/files\/BDXLYNLYNC-1500-2009-F0L0C0.jpg?v=1739764942","url":"https:\/\/grandcruliquidassets.com\/products\/lynch-bages-2009-1-5l","provider":"Grand Cru Liquid Assets","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
