The 1987 Château Lynch-Bages is best avoided unless you have a high tolerance for green, weedy aromas and flavors.

Score 82/100 · Drink 1993-1996, Robert Parker, Aug 1993

The 1987 Lynch-Bages is a dark ruby-colored, herbaceous, rich, medium-bodied, soft, supple wine that is ideal for current drinking. Anticipated maturity: Now-1996. Last tasted, 1/93.

Riper and fuller than most '87s, this wine has a pretty core of black cherry and currant flavors of moderate intensity and firm tannins. Still, on the finish, the flavors lack the full intenstiy and concentration of the best Bordeaux vintages. Drink now. James Suckling,Wine Spectator 1990
