Owned by Famille J-M Cazesb, Château Lynch Bages extends across 109ha of land, with a terroir of garonne gravel. This wine is a blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot.

Tasting Notes:

"Plum, damson, with a touch of gunsmoke reduction on the first nose, rich and nuanced in colour and aromatics. Pure chiselled cassis and blackberry fruits as it opens, with cocoa bean, sage, cardamom, grilled cedar, smoked earth and crayon, widening through the mid palate to reveal a creamy texture. Exuberant in character, plenty of vintage signature. A yield of 38hl/ha, 75% new oak." - Jane Anson, JaneAnson.com, March 2022
