Where can I get a bottle or two of 2016 Lynch Bages....

[JimHow]

Millesima in NYC says a case of six bottles for $882 + whatever, and they ship to Maine.
I don't believe I have ever utilized them before, are they any good?

Gerry, item 23384 in NH looks like it might be the 2017, would you agree?
Looks like they have three full cases in the NH system, which tells me it is likely 2017.

I want to try a bottle in the name of science.

$882 per 6 pack seems expensive for a 5th Growth, that’s more like (super) second pricing.

How about Sotheby's? They're listed as having it at $159 for individual bottles.
Total Wine wants $189.99.

I encourage you to buy a bottle or two of the 2016 Chateau Lynch Bages, open a bottle, and report here Jim. We all want to know how that Lynch is performing in 2016... and maybe you'll be able to finalize "the Lynch Bages BWE classification file" once for all.

[JimHow]

That is indeed the plan, Nicola.
The last two messages in this thread from JC Northway and Jean-Nicolas Maltais, two members of BWE who have been here on this site since 2000 -- 21 years ago -- and who were at the first BWE convention in Chicago in February 2001... who know a thing or two about the relationship between BWE and Chateau Lynch Bages....

Jim,

NH does have it, #94126. They have plenty of it. The price is about $170 before any discount. They have almost 100 bottles.

I'd wait for the next sale and get it for $145.

[JimHow]

You da man, Gerry.
I knew it was in there somewhere, thanks!

[William P]

InternetWines.com has it for $159.00. I've dealt with them before and they were responsive and reliable. Wines arrived in good shape.

Hart Davis Hart has it for $150. Maybe Whuzzup will give you a discount.

You could also keep an eye out for an HDH sale. I got some around 125 a few months back when they had a sitewide.

Don't I feel silly, I paid $125 on futures.

I just want to get two bottles so I can drink one to determine whether Lynch should be elevated to second growth status.

You really ought to get the 2019 and dink it in 2030 before you make a decision.
