What the critics say
92 WAWine Advocate, Robert Parker, 01-01-1998
A tasting in December, 1995 revealed a relatively strong showing for the 1945 Lynch Bages. This wine exhibited a minty, cassis-scented nose that did indeed seem reminiscent of the "poor man's Mouton-Rothschild." A dense, opaque ruby/garnet color was followed by a full-bodied, powerful, but tough-textured, hard, astringently tannic wine that may lose its fruit before the tannin fully melts away. Although impressive for its overall size and intensity, this wine will never win any awards for grace and harmony. It will keep for another 15-20 years.

My solitary encounter with the 1945 Lynch-Bages came at a vertical tasting in London. It has an incongruous and rather off-putting cheesy scent on the nose. The palate is rustic and broad-shouldered, funky though drinkable. This encounter suggests that this Pauillac suffered after the war and could not produce a stellar wine when the growing season made that possible. Yet it is still drinkable. Tasted October 2006.
