 Cedar, tobacco leaf, pepper, red currants are there for taking on the nose. With an hour of air, the wine softens and develops more secondary nuances, finishing with a savory edge to the spicy red berries in the finish.

Gorgeous. Great structure accompanied by an intense blackberry and menthol fruit. There are cedar and leather notes here but still relatively muted, such is the youth of the wine. Long and complex. Drinking perfectly now and will last forever.

Medium ruby. Open nose, very fragrant, very Bordeaux, some tobacco, cedarwood, herbs, some plum, also bell pepper, complex. On the palate creamy, soft and accessible, the fruit retreats into the background, the structure of tannin and acidity is right. Spicy and with a hint of animality on the finish. A very beautiful wine, at its peak.

Dark color, good intensity and evolved. Moderately aromatic and animal nose. Round palate on the attack, fruity on the development, ample in the middle and slightly tannic on the finish. Slightly lively persistence, but flavorful.

Mid ruby. Savoury nose reminiscent of wet stones and then a real weight of ripe fruit. Still some greenness on the finish but this seems a bit more set for future development than most.

Château Château Lynch Bages
Château Lynch Bages
Château Lynch Bages

Château Lynch-Bages is one of the great names of the Pauillac appellation, classified as a Fifth Grand Cru Classé in 1855. Located on the historic plateau of Bages, in the heart of the Médoc, this wine has embodied for several generations the controlled power and qualitative consistency that make the reputation of great Bordeaux wines.

The history of Château Lynch-Bages begins in the 18th century with the Lynch family, of Irish origin, before the property was acquired in the 20th century by the Cazes family. Since the acquisition by Jean-Charles Cazes in 1939, then under the impetus of Jean-Michel Cazes and today Jean-Charles Cazes, the estate has continuously strengthened its identity and international reputation. This family continuity is a central element of Château Lynch-Bages' uniqueness.

The vineyard sits on deep Garonne gravel, ideally drained, an emblematic terroir of Pauillac, particularly favorable to Cabernet Sauvignon, the predominant grape variety in the blend. It gives birth to structured, refined wines built for aging, combining aromatic intensity, tannic precision and finesse.

Vintages such as Château Lynch-Bages 1982, Château Lynch-Bages 1995, Château Lynch-Bages 2000, Château Lynch-Bages 1989, Château Lynch-Bages 2009 or Château Lynch-Bages 2010 illustrate the remarkable consistency of the estate and its essential status among the collectible wines of Pauillac.
