"Deep garnet core. This has a pert, ripe nose with graphite-laced blackcurrant, blueberry and a touch of dried fig. Good definition, blossoming with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied, spicy and showing a healthy degree of ripeness, certainly more supple than previous bottles have shown, expanding in the mouth but then clamming up towards the more structured, austere finish. I am warming more and more to this Lynch Bages as it matures and doubtlessly represents great value for money."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
The world's largest fine-wine region, built around blends of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Divided by the Gironde estuary into the structured Left Bank and the plush, Merlot-led Right Bank, it is the historic benchmark for age-worthy claret and sweet Sauternes.
Home to three of Bordeaux's five First Growths, Pauillac is the Left Bank benchmark for powerful, structured Cabernet Sauvignon. Its wines are famed for cassis, cedar and graphite notes and exceptional aging potential.
