The 1966 Lynch Bages showed well in the tasting. Medium garnet-colored with considerable amber at the edge, the aromatics could have pushed this wine into the 90-point category, but the flavors were dry and angular, and there was considerable astringent tannin in the finish.

It is a medium-bodied effort made in the old, elegant, slightly excessively tannic style of Bordeaux made during this period
