I drank my last bottle of 1990 Lynch Bages from a case I bought on release with grilled filets of venison. Still dark and youthful in the glass. Nose of crushed berries, cassis a bit of cigarbox and a whiff of typical LB brett. Smooth and supple, deep with black fruits a bit of coffee and tobacco and a nice minerality. Wonderful stuff.

nice (but sad it's last one). I've enjoyed a few bottles of this

FWIW, it still has another 10 years of prime drinking left.
Nice note, Bill. I wish that I still had any of mine. :(

The good news is it's fairly easily obtainable. The bad news is...it retails for over $300.
Yippee! I have 4 left. 5 89s, too.
